Calculate the arc length for the following curved line: yo 2 3
Angles in Circles
Angles within a circle are feasible to create with the help of different properties of the circle such as radii, tangents, and chords. The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle. A tangent is a line made perpendicular to the radius through its endpoint placed on the circle as well as the line drawn at right angles to a tangent across the point of contact when the circle passes through the center of the circle. The chord is a line segment with its endpoints on the circle. A secant line or secant is the infinite extension of the chord.
Arcs in Circles
A circular arc is the arc of a circle formed by two distinct points. It is a section or segment of the circumference of a circle. A straight line passing through the center connecting the two distinct ends of the arc is termed a semi-circular arc.

#### Task: Calculate the arc length for the following curved line.
**Function Equation:**
\[ f(x) = \frac{1}{2}x^2 - \frac{1}{4} \ln x \]
**Graph Description:**
The coordinate system is shown with the x-axis and y-axis intersecting at the origin (0,0). The x-axis is labeled with values 0, 2, and 3. The y-axis is labeled as \( y \).
A curve is plotted on this coordinate system, starting near (2,0) and rising upward to the right, towards x = 3. This curve represents the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{2}x^2 - \frac{1}{4} \ln x \).
The task is to calculate the arc length of this curve between x = 2 and x = 3.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F0f6dc858-dc6a-4614-8154-d70dfca22707%2F1d945d03-0bb5-4d68-b269-2367d941fc09%2Frneeot_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
