Strong proficiency in elementary and advanced mathematics
r=sin2Φ/2 dr/dΦ =2sinΦ/2cosΦ/2•1/2 =sinΦ/2cosΦ/2 L=∫0π√(r2 +(dr/dΦ)2)dΦ. So L=∫0π√(sin4Φ/2 +sin2Φ/2cos2Φ/2)dΦ. Then L= ∫0πsinΦ/2√(sin2Φ/2 +cos2Φ/2)dΦ L= ∫0π sinΦ/2 dΦ where the term in the square root is the trig identity. So L= -2cosΦ/2|0π and L=-2(0-1) =2.
