Find the arc length of the curve over the given interval.

 Arc length of curve can be denoted as " ". We can determine it by using integral formula on a closed interval [a,b] as:


where:


 


or



= lower boundary of the closed interval


=upper boundary of the closed interval



From the given problem: , we determine that the boundary values are:


...

 Arc length of curve can be denoted as " ". We can determine it by using integral formula on a closed interval [a,b] as:


where:


 


or



= lower boundary of the closed interval


=upper boundary of the closed interval



From the given problem: , we determine that the boundary values are:


and


Note that follows then the formula we will follow can be expressed as


For the derivative of  or  , we apply the derivative formula for logarithm:




 Then  or .


Plug-in the values  on integral formula for arc length of a curve, we get:



Let then we get:



    


    


    


    


From the integration table,  we follow the formula for rational function with roots:


 .


Applying the integral formula with a^2=1 then a=1, we get:



                     


Apply the definite integral formula: .







Apply logarithm property: .
