Expert Solution
Step 1

Introduction:

The formula of the curvature of any curve is given by,

κ=R'(t)×R"(t)R'(t)3

Where Rt is any curve parametrized by t.

Follow-up Question

In the last step of the solution you have 2sqrt(5)/(sqrt(5))2. Isn't that supposed to be 2sqrt(5)/(sqrt(5))3? It is cubed in the original equation for curvature so was wondering if that was just a typo in the solution or if there is a reason the denominator is squared instead of cubed?
