Help constructing state-space model of a system

[tehipwn]

Homework Statement

A single wheel cat moving on the plane with linear velocity v angular velocity \omega can be modeled by the nonlinear system:

dpx/dt = v*cos(\theta)

dpy/dt = v*sin(\theta)

d\theta/dt = \omega

where (px,py) denote the cartesian coordinates of the wheel and \theta its orientation. The system has input u=[v \omega] '.

Construct a state-space model for this system with state

*note: These are both 3x1 matrixes.

[x1] = [[px*cos(\theta) + (py-1)*sin(\theta)]
[x2] = [-px*sin(\theta) + (py-1)*cos(\theta)]
[x3] = [\theta]]

and output y = [x1 x2] '

Homework Equations

dpx/dt = v*cos(\theta)

dpy/dt = v*sin(\theta)

d\theta/dt = \omega

The Attempt at a Solution

I don't have much. I'm pretty sure to put the given state into a state-space model I will take the derivative of both sides of the system with respect to t. If that's the correct method, I guess I'm not sure of how to take the derivative of the right side with respect to t since I know the velocity and acceleration functions are functions of time, but the stated system doesn't explicitly show the variable t. Any ideas anyone?

I have came up with the following MATLAB code, let me know if it looks corrects if anyone is checking this thread:

syms v theta omega t

pxdt = v*cos(theta); % System dynamics
pydt = v*sin(theta);
thetadt = omega;

px = int(pxdt,t);
py = int(pydt,t);
theta = int(omega,t);
% Given system state:
x = [px*cos(theta)+(py-1)*sin(theta); -px*sin(theta)+(py-1)*cos(theta); theta];
% State-Space Model: Part (a)
dxdt = diff(x,t)
