Can you help @robtobey ?

So to find the arc length you must use the following \[l=\int\limits _{x_0}^{x_1} \sqrt{1+f ^\prime (x)^2}dx\] So in your case that gives \[l=\int\limits _{0}^{2} \sqrt{1+36 x^4-24 x^2+4}dx\] Now just apply the trapezoidal rule where h=2/8, N=8 and f(x) is the inside of the integral above \[\frac{h}{2} \sum_{k=1}^{N} \left( f(x_{k+1}) + f(x_{k}) \right)\]
