I says every time you INCREASE by 1 degree Farenheit you go up 59 degrees C, so it is false. Same for III, if you go up or down 1 degree C that's not a change of 59 in degrees F.

That leaves B, which is right if you experiment with the math.

Find, correct to four decimal places, the length of the curve of intersection of the cylinder 16x2 + y2 = 16 and the plane x + y

Yuri [45]

Let the curve C be the intersection of the cylinder

$16x^2+y^2=16$

and the plane

$x+y+z=1$

The projection of C on to the x-y plane is the ellipse

$16x^2+y^2=16$

To see clearly that this is an ellipse, le us divide through by 16, to get

$\frac{x^2}{1}+ \frac{y^2}{16}=1$

$\frac{x^2}{1^2}+ \frac{y^2}{4^2}=1$ ,

We can write the following parametric equations,

$x=cos(t), y=4sin(t)$

for

$0\le t \le 2\pi$

Since C lies on the plane,

$x+y+z=1$

it must satisfy its equation.

Let us make z the subject first,

$z=1-x-y$

This implies that,

$z=1-sin(t)-4cos(t)$

We can now write the vector equation of C, to obtain,

$r(t)=(cos(t),4sin(t),1-cos(t)-4sin(t))$

The length of the curve of the intersection of the cylinder and the plane is now given by,

$\int\limits^{2\pi}_0 {|r'(t)|} \, dt$

But

$r'(t)=(-sin(t),4cos(t),sin(t)-4cos(t))$

$|r'(t)|=\sqrt{(-sin(t))^2+(4cos(t))^2+(sin(t)-4cos(t))}$

$\int\limits^{2\pi}_0 {\sqrt{2sin^2(t)+32cos(t)-8sin(t)cos(t)} }\, dt=24.08778184$

Therefore the length of the curve of the intersection intersection of the cylinder and the plane is 24.0878 units correct to four decimal places.
