Question

I need help with these questions which are in the study plan of the Calculus-2. Thanks in advance.

a. The graph y = f(x) in the xy-plane automatically has the parametrization x =x, y =f(x), and the vector formula r(x) =xi + f(x)j. Use this formula to show that if f is a twice-differentiable function of x, then K(x) =
[1+ (r'(x))²]³/2 °
b. Use the formula for k to find the curvature of y = In ( sin x), 0<x<1.
c. Show that the curvature is zero at a point of inflection.
a. Show that K(X) =
[1+ (r'x)²]³/2
r(x) = xi + f(X)j
v(X) =
