Approximating the arc length of curves using calculus involves methods like measuring small straight lines and utilizing Pythagorean theorem. The formula for calculating arc length in Cartesian form is explored, along with examples demonstrating how to find arc length over specified intervals. Trigonometric substitutions and computer algebra systems are also discussed in the context of finding arc lengths for various functions.
