Question
The Frenet–Serret formulas calculate derivatives taken with respect to this quantity. Elliptic integrals were developed to calculate this quantity for ellipses. This quantity is approximated as the sum of the distances between adjacent values in a partition of the domain and may equal the supremum of all such rectifications. A function “parameterized (*) by” this quantity has a tangent vector whose magnitude is uniformly one and whose derivative equals the curvature. In Cartesian coordinates, the differential of this quantity equals the square root of d x squared plus d y squared and is denoted d s when performing a line integral. For 10 points, name this quantity equal to the distance between two points along a section of a curve. ■END■
ANSWER: arc length [accept the length of a curve or distance along a curve; prompt on s or length or perimeter or ellipse; prompt on distance before read]
