Finding the Arc Length of a Polar Curve In Exercises \(57-62,\) use a graphing utility to graph the polar equation over the given interval. Use the integration capabilities of the graphing utility to approximate the length of the curve accurate to two decimal places. $$ \begin{array}{ll}{\text { Polar Equation }} & {\text { Interval }} \\\ {r=e^{\theta}} & {0 \leq \theta \leq \pi}\end{array} $$
Area of a Region In Exercises \(57-60\) , use the integration capabilities of a graphing utility to approximate, to two decimal places, the area of the region bounded by the graph of the polar equation. $$ r=\frac{9}{4+\cos \theta} $$
Finding the Arc Length of a Polar Curve In Exercises \(57-62,\) use a graphing utility to graph the polar equation over the given interval. Use the integration capabilities of the graphing utility to approximate the length of the curve accurate to two decimal places. $$ \begin{array}{ll}{\text { Polar Equation }} & {\text { Interval }} \\ {r=\sec \theta} & {0 \leq \theta \leq \frac{\pi}{3}} \\\\\end{array} $$
Sketching and Identifying a Conic In Exercises \(13-22\) , find the eccentricity and the distance from the pole to the directrix of the conic. Then sketch and identify the graph. Use a graphing utility to confirm your results. $$ r=\frac{-6}{3+7 \sin \theta} $$
