|'''1.''' The formula for the arc length &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: 0px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;L&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; of a polar curve &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -5px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;r=f(\theta)&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; with &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -4px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\alpha_1\leq \theta \leq \alpha_2&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; is &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;L=\int_{\alpha_1}^{\alpha_2} \sqrt{r^2+\bigg(\frac{dr}{d\theta}\bigg)^2}d\theta.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|'''2.''' How would you integrate &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -14px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\int \sqrt{1+x^2}~dx?&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::You could use trig substitution and let &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -1px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;x=\tan \theta .&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|'''3.''' Recall that &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\int \sec^3x~dx=\frac{1}{2}\sec x \tan x +\frac{1}{2}\ln|\sec x +\tan x|+C.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Solution:'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
!Step 1: &amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|First, we need to calculate &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -14px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\frac{dr}{d\theta}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Since &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -14px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;r=\theta,~\frac{dr}{d\theta}=1.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Using the formula in Foundations, we have &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;L=\int_0^{2\pi}\sqrt{\theta^2+1}d\theta.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
!Step 2: &amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Now, we proceed using trig substitution. Let &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -2px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\theta=\tan x.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; Then, &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -1px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;d\theta=\sec^2xdx.&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|So, the integral becomes &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{L} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\sqrt{\tan^2x+1}\sec^2xdx}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\sec^3xdx}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{1}{2}\sec x \tan x +\frac{1}{2}\ln|\sec x +\tan x|\bigg|_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}.}\\&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
!Step 3: &amp;amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Since &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -1px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;\theta=\tan x,&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; we have &amp;lt;math style=&amp;quot;vertical-align: -1px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;x=\tan^{-1}\theta .&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|So, we have&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
::&amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\begin{array}{rcl}&lt;br /&gt;
\displaystyle{L} &amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{1}{2}\sec (\tan^{-1}(\theta)) \theta +\frac{1}{2}\ln|\sec (\tan^{-1}(\theta)) +\theta|\bigg|_{0}^{2\pi}}\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;&amp;amp;\\&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp; = &amp;amp; \displaystyle{\frac{1}{2}\sec(\tan^{-1}(2\pi))2\pi+\frac{1}{2}\ln|\sec(\tan^{-1}(2\pi))+2\pi|.}\\&lt;br /&gt;
\end{array}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;mw-collapsible mw-collapsed&amp;quot; style = &amp;quot;text-align:left;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
!Final Answer: &amp;amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\frac{1}{2}\sec(\tan^{-1}(2\pi))2\pi+\frac{1}{2}\ln|\sec(\tan^{-1}(2\pi))+2\pi|&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
