Final answer:
The formula for the arc length of a polar function is explained and an integral for the arc length of the given function is set up. The formula for finding the shaded area of a polar function is explained and an integral for the shaded area of the given function is set up.
Step-by-step explanation:
Polar Function and Arc Length
The given polar function is r = 1 - cos(2θ), 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π.
(a) Arc Length
To find the arc length, we can use the formula:
Z = ∫√(r² + (dr/dθ)²) dθ
But we do not evaluate this integral.
(b) Shaded Area
Using the given polar function:
A = (1/2) ∫(1 - cos(2θ))² dθ
