I NEED HELP PLOX. :3
Find the exact length of the curve. #5 Por FAVOR. :3
Its my last problem. Yay :D
Are you able to find the derivative of this?
So.. would\[y ^{'}= \frac{ 1-2x }{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} }+\frac{ \cos^{-1} (\sqrt{x} )}{ 2\sqrt{x} }\]
that's not a simple sine. That's inverse sine or arcsine

Oh right right. Soo... \[y ^{'}=\frac{ 1-2x }{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } - \left( \frac{ -1 }{\sqrt{1-x}} \right) \left( \frac{ 1 }{ 2\sqrt{x} } \right)\]
yes, now let's simplify things \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 1-2x }{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } - \left( \frac{ -1 }{\sqrt{1-x}} \right) \left( \frac{ 1 }{ 2\sqrt{x} } \right)\] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 1-2x }{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } +\frac{ 1 }{2\sqrt{x}\sqrt{1-x}} \] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 1-2x }{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } +\frac{ 1 }{2\sqrt{x(1-x)}} \] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 1-2x }{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } +\frac{ 1 }{2\sqrt{x-x^2}} \] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 1-2x +1}{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } \] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 2-2x}{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } \] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 2(1-x)}{ 2\sqrt{x-x^2} } \] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ \cancel{2}(1-x)}{ \cancel{2}\sqrt{x-x^2} } \] \[\Large y ^{'}=\frac{ 1-x}{ \sqrt{x-x^2} } \] Do you agree with these steps?
Oh wait the 1/2ratx wouldnt be needed right?
Oh nvm.
Yes I agree
Now plug it into the arc length formula \[\Large L = \int_{a}^{b}\sqrt{1+\left(y^{\prime}\right)^2}dx\]
\[\int\limits \sqrt{1+\left( \frac{ 1-x }{ \sqrt{x-x^2} }\right)^2}\]
yep correct
the values of 'a' and 'b' aren't given to you, but you can figure them out based on what the domain of f(x) is
Um 1?
0 and 1?
correct a = 0 b = 1
Oh wait, I did that by looking at the dericative of arctan(sqrt x)
How do you do it correctly?
find the domain?
Yes
I see the 0, but not the 1
the first thing that comes to mind is the `sqrt(x)` inside the arcsine the domain for that piece is x >= 0
Oh i plugged in a zero for f(x) and got 0.
The domain of arcsine is -1 <= x <= 1 but we don't have to worry about negatives (since the square root inside won't accept negatives) So far, the domain is 0 <= x <= 1
The domain of sqrt(x-x^2) is 0 <= x <= 1 as well
So that's why a = 0 and b = 1
When looking for the domain, don't we look to see what numbers make the equation = 0?
you might be thinking of something like 1/(x-5) there you set x-5 equal to zero and solve to find that x = 5 makes the denominator zero. So we have to kick 5 out of the domain
Yea
we don't have that issue here
Oh so we have to kind of visualize the graph?
yes that's one way to do it. Or to analyze the domain of each piece like I did above
Oh okay, I see. So then what would I do after I set up the arc length equation? Do I have to factor the numerator?
I get \[\int\limits_{0}^{1} \sqrt{1+\left( \frac{ 1-2x+x^2 }{ x-x^2 } \right)}\]
\[\Large L = \int_{a}^{b}\sqrt{1+\left(y^{\prime}\right)^2}dx\] \[\Large L = \int_{0}^{1}\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{1-x}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\right)^2}dx\] \[\Large L = \int_{0}^{1}\sqrt{1+\frac{(1-x)^2}{\left(\sqrt{x-x^2}\right)^2}}dx\] \[\Large L = \int_{0}^{1}\sqrt{1+\frac{1-2x+x^2}{x-x^2}}dx\] Do you see what to do from here?
ok good, we got the same thing
now simplify the stuff under the radical further
\[\int\limits_{0}^{1} \sqrt{1\left(\frac{ 1-x }{ x } \right)}\]
1+*
Then we can say this \[\Large L = \int_{0}^{1}\sqrt{1+\frac{1-x}{x}}dx\] \[\Large L = \int_{0}^{1}\sqrt{\frac{x}{x}+\frac{1-x}{x}}dx\] \[\Large L = \int_{0}^{1}\sqrt{\frac{x+1-x}{x}}dx\] \[\Large L = \int_{0}^{1}\sqrt{\frac{1}{x}}dx\] which at this point, you can probably see how to evaluate the integral? If not, then here's a hint: \[\Large \sqrt{x} = x^{1/2}\]
\[\int\limits_{0}^{1}(x)^{-1/2} = [(x)^{1/2}]_{0}^{1} = 1\]
Oops.
You also multiply 2. lmao
The answer = 2
Yay, i got it :D
Thanks!
yep the final answer is 2
