(12C Platinum) Parabola - arc length

[Gamo]

The Arc Length of a Parabola calculator compute the arc length (S)

of a parabola based on the distance height (H) and

the width (L) of the parabola at that point perpendicular to the axis.

----------------------------------------------------------------

The formula for determining the length of an arc of a Parabola.

   

----------------------------------------------------------------

Instruction: FIX 4

1. H [R/S] display Height
2. L [R/S] display Answer of the Arc Length of a Parabola

----------------------------------------------------------------

Example: H is 20 feet and L is 90 feet, what is the length of S?

20 [R/S] display 20.000
90 [R/S] display 100.7376

Answer: 100.7376 feet
