INSTRUCTIONS: Use more than one sheet of paper if necessary to show all work but write only one side of each sheet. The parametric equations trace a semicircle. x=sin(π-t) y = cos(π-t) - 1/2 ≤t≤ 1/1/20 Plot enough points to recognize the shape of the semi-circle. Use the arc-length formula for parameterized curves to compute the length of the semicircle. Check the answer with some fourth-grade math.
