![**Topic: Calculating Arc Length**
**Objective: Determine the Arc Length**
**Parametric Equations:**
- \( x = 3 \sin(t) \)
- \( y = 3 \cos(t) \)
**Interval:**
- \( 0 \leq t \leq 2\pi \)
**Explanation:**
To find the arc length of a parametric curve defined by the equations \( x = 3 \sin(t) \) and \( y = 3 \cos(t) \) over the interval \( 0 \) to \( 2\pi \), one must use the arc length formula for parametric equations:
\[
L = \int_a^b \sqrt{\left(\frac{dx}{dt}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{dy}{dt}\right)^2} \, dt
\]
In this scenario, compute the derivatives \( \frac{dx}{dt} \) and \( \frac{dy}{dt} \), substitute them into the formula, and evaluate the integral over the given interval.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F3632b9ca-0e22-48c8-943d-c9e08fc0f04c%2F24a15195-bad6-444b-a0a0-ee9f94004896%2Fm64fs8_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
