Homework Statement


Find the arc length of r(t)= <10sqrt(2), e^10t, e^-10t>, 0 <_ t <_ 1.
<_ is greater than or equal to.


Homework Equations



arc length= integral(magnitude of the derivative of r(t))

The Attempt at a Solution



i thought I figured the answer out and got an arc length of 31149.3, but my online homework is telling me this is the wrong answer. I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
