Step 1
To do this, we need to find dy/dx and substitute it into the integral. Given that f = ∫₀⁴ √(1 + (dy/dx)²) dx, we need to find dy/dx. Show more…

Find the arc length of the function $f(x)=\int_{e}^{x} \sqrt{\ln ^{2} t-1} d t$ on $\left[e, e^{3}\right]$
Integration Techniques
Integration by Parts
(a) use the arc length formula (1) to set up the integral for arc length. (b) If you have access to a graphing utility or a CAS, find the length. Do not attempt to integrate by hand. $$ x=\sqrt{4-y^{2}}, \text { from } y=0 \text { to } y=1 $$
