Step1
Given
F(t)=cos(t)isin(t)j+tk
G(t)=cos(t)i+sin(t)j
Now,
r(t)=F(t)+G(t)
=(cos(t)esin(t)j+tk)+(cos(t)i+sin(t)j)
=2cos(t)i+tk
Step2
Since,
The domain of the vector valued function in the form
r(t)=f(t)i+g(t)j+h(t)k is intersection of all the components (f (t),g(t) and h(t)).
So,
By comparing:
f(t)=2cos(t)
h(t)=t
Now,
The domain of f(t):
f(t)=2cos(t)
The function has no undefined points nor domain constraints.
Therefore, the domain is: <x<
And
The domain of h(t):
h(t)=t
The function is defined only when f0.
Therefore, the domain is:0x<
Step3
Now,
The intersection of domains of f(t) and h(t) is the required domain of a vector-valued function r(t).
Therefore,
Domain of r(t):[Solution:t0Interval Notation[0,)]
