Arc Length
Suppose that a curve C is defined by the equation y = f (x) where f is continuous and a x b.

Arc Length formula:
If we use Leibniz notation for derivatives, we can write the arc length formula as follows:

Example 1 – SolutionFor the top half of the curve we have y = x3/2
So the arc length formula gives
If we substitute u = 1 + , then du = dx.When x = 1, u = ; when x = 4, u = 10.

Arc Length (integration in y)
If a curve has the equation x = g (y), c y d, and g (y) is continuous, then by interchanging the roles of x and y we obtain the following formula for its length:

Generalization:The Arc Length Function

The Arc Length Function
Given a smooth y = f (x), on the interval a x b ,the length of the curve s(x) from the initial point P0(a, f (a)) to any point Q (x, f (x)) is a function, called the arc length function:

Find the arc length function for the curve y = x2 – ln x taking P0(1, 1) as the starting point.
Solution:If f (x) = x2 – ln x, then
f (x) = 2x –
