Let y=f(x), axby=f(x),axb be the given curve.The arc length L of such curve is given by the definite integral
L=ab1+[f(x))2dx
Let x=g(t), y=h(t) where cxdcxd be the parametric equations of the curve y=f(x).
Then the arc length of the curve is given by
L=cd(dxdt)2+(dydt)2dt
Here x(t)=coset,y(t)=sinet where 0<t<π be the parametric equations of the curve y=f(x). Then the arc length of the curve is given by
L=0πsqt((sinet)2+(coset)2dt)
=0πsqt(sin2et+cos2etdt)
=0πdt
=π
