### Curve Length Calculation

#### Problem Statement
Find the length of the curve defined by the parametric equations:

\[ x = 5 \sin t - 5t \cos t, \quad y = 5 \cos t + 5t \sin t, \quad 0 \leq t \leq \frac{\pi}{2} \]

#### Objective
Determine the length of the curve within the given interval.

The formula for the length \(L\) of a curve defined by parametric equations \( x = f(t) \) and \( y = g(t) \) over an interval \([a, b]\) is given by:

\[ L = \int_{a}^{b} \sqrt{\left( \frac{dx}{dt} \right)^2 + \left( \frac{dy}{dt} \right)^2} \, dt \]

#### Solution Steps
1. **Calculate the derivatives:**
    - Find \( \frac{dx}{dt} \)
    - Find \( \frac{dy}{dt} \)
  
2. **Substitute the derivatives into the length formula:**
  
3. **Evaluate the integral:**
  
#### Given Data:
\[ x = 5 \sin t - 5 t \cos t \]
\[ y = 5 \cos t + 5 t \sin t \]
\[ 0 \leq t \leq \frac{\pi}{2} \]

#### Length Calculation
\[ \text{The length is} \, \boxed{\text{units}}. \]
*(Type an exact answer, using \(\pi\) as needed.)*

This transcribed and described the educational task of finding the length of a parametric curve within a specified interval, detailing the necessary formulas and steps involved.
