I stole the formula from a website for surfaces of revolution that was linked in the comment above:

They prove it more generally for parametric surfaces. I am not sure what you are allowed to assume in your calculus two course; I was unsuccessful in getting a correct formula from a direct polar slicing argument.
In what follows, I am going to be sloppy about whether I write $r$ as a variable or as a function $r(\theta)$ of $\theta$.
Since the right half of the lemniscate is traced out between $-\pi/4$ and $\pi/4$, the integral you want is $ 2\pi\int_{-\pi/4}^{\pi/4} r(\theta)\cos\theta\sqrt{r(\theta)^2 + r'(\theta)^2}d\theta $ We have $ r^2 = \cos(2\theta) $ and so $ 2rr' = -2\sin(2\theta), $ so \begin{align*} (r')^2 &= \frac{\sin^2(2\theta)}{r^2}\\ &=\tan^2(2\theta). \end{align*} The integrand isn't very pretty. I used wolfram alpha and it numerically approximated the integral (without the 2 $\pi$) to be 2.1028, which seems geometrically reasonable to me. I'm sorry for the unsatisfying conclusion.
