∫0√2t√[12 + (sint + tcost)2 + (cost - tsint)2]dt = ∫0√2t√(2 + t2)dt = 1/2·2/3(2 + t2)3/20√2= 1/3(8 - 2√2)= 2(4 - √2)/3 ≈

asked 09/17/20Evaluate the line integral with respect to arc length where C is given by ∫c x ds
x = t, y = t sin t, z = t cos t, 0 ≤ t ≤ √(2)
firstly subbed t into equation as x=t
then differentiated x, y and z:
x'=1
y'=sint + tcost
z'=cost - tsint
these should then be subbed into the formula like this:
√2
∫ t*√((1)2 + (sint+tcost)2+(cost-tsint)2) dt
0
Im now stuck as im unsure of how to progress from this point, have tried simplifying with trig identities but no luck.
