Explanation / Answer

Since r(t) = <cos(1t), -sin(1t), -t>, we have r'(t) = <-sin(t), -cos(t), -1>

A) Since ||r'(t)|| = sqrt(2) , we have T(t) = r'(t)/||r'(t)|| = (<-sin(t), -cos(t), -1>)/sqrt(2)
==> T(pi/6) = <-1/(2sqrt(2)) , -sqrt(3)/(2sqrt(2)) , -1/sqrt(2)>

B) T'(t) = (1/sqrt(2))<-cos(t), sin(t), 0>.
Since ||T'(t)|| = 1/sqrt(2), we have N(t) = T'(t)/||T'(t)|| = <-cos(t), sin(t), 0>.
==> N(pi/6) = <-(sqrt(3))/2, 1/2, 0>

C) B(pi/6) = T(pi/6) x N(pi/6) = <(1/4)*sqrt(3/2), -(1/4)*sqrt(3/2), 0>
