The length of the parametric curve (call it <em>C </em>) is given by

\displaystyle\int_C\mathrm ds=\int_0^{8\pi}\sqrt{\left(\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2}\,\mathrm dt

We have

x=t-2\sin t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=1-2\cos t

y=1-2\cos t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=2\sin t

Now,

\left(\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2=5-4\cos t

so that the arc length integral reduces to

\displaystyle\int_0^{8\pi}\sqrt{5-4\cos t}\,\mathrm dt

which has an approximate value of 53.4596.

What is the product of 2X plus 3 and 4X squared minus 5X plus 6
Tju [1.3M]
The product of something means multiplying the terms together.

(2x+3) (4x^2-5x+6)

Secondly you need to distribute the terms to each other (Think of problems like FOIL)

2x * 4x^2 + 2x(-5x) + 2x * 6 + 3 * 4x^2 + 3(-5x) + 3 * 6

Then you must take into account that some of the numbers are negative. (minus-plus rules!)

2x * 4x^2 - 2x * 5x + 2x * 6 + 3 * 4x^2 - 3 * 5x + 3 * 6

Now is the tricky part of simplifying everything. 

2x * 4x^2 = 8x^3 

2x * 5x = 10x^2

2x * 6 = 12x

3 * 4x^2 = 12x^2

3 * 5x = 15x

3 * 6 = 18

8x^3 - 10x^2 + 12x + 12x^2 - 15x + 18

Then you group like terms.

8x^3 - 10x^2 + 12x^2 - 3x + 18

8x^2 + 2x^2 - 3x + 18

The trickiest part of this is distributing all of the terms within the parentheses, once you've done that, it's smooth sailing!

1 1/2× 3/4 please answer
Lynna [10]
It is 3/2 • 3/4 because you have to make the mixed number an improper fraction. Theb you would solve 3/2 • 3/4 and get 9/8 and that simplified is 1 1/8

a chord of 12cm long of 8cm is away from the of the circle what is the lenght of the chord which is 6cm away from the centre
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The length of the chord is 16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, a line from the center of the circle to a chord divides the chord into 2 equal portions

From the first part of the question, we can get the radius of the circle

The radius form the hypotenuse, the two-portions of the chord (12/2 = 6 cm) and the distance from the center to the chord forms the other side of the triangle

Thus, by Pythagoras’ theorem; the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Thus,

r^2 = 8^2 + 6^2

r^2= 64 + 36

r^2 = 100

r = 10 cm

Now, we want to get a chord length which is 6 cm away from the circle center

let the half-portion that forms the right triangle be c

Using Pythagoras’ theorem;

10^2 = 6^2 + c^2

c^2 = 100-36

c^2 = 64

c = 8

The full

length of the chord is 2 * 8 = 16 cm
