r(t) = (3 cos t, 3 sin t, 9), P(G 9)
Step 1
The unit tangent vector T(t) att is defined as follows:
r'(t)
T(t)
r'(t) + 0
First find the derivative of r(t).
r'(t) =(-3 sin(t),3 cos(t),0)
(-3 sin(t), 3 cos(t), 0)
Step 2
Now find the magnitude of r'(t).
(-3 sin t)2 + (3 cos t)? + (0)2
9 sin? t + 9 cos² t
= 3

Step 3
The unit tangent vector T(t) at t is as follows:
(-3 sin t, 3 cos t, o)
T(t)
