Areas and Volumes
Area of a circle
We need a substitution
Find the limit points

Volume of a sphere
Area of ellipse- use parametric equations
The Rings of the Lord w/2 r R
The Rings of the Lord Volume = w/2 r R
Volume = w/2 r R
Arc length
You need a substitution
A cable of length l is suspended between two towers of equal height a distance 2d apart, so that it sags a distance h in the centre. – The curve formed by a suspended rope or cable is called a catenary. Using a coordinate system with the lowest point of the catenary at the origin, it can be described by the equation – where a is a constant
Use the arc length formula to show that
