We use Taylor’s formula with Lagrange remainder to prove that functions with bounded second derivative are rectifiable in the case when polygonal paths are defined by interval subdivisions which are equally spaced. As a means for generating interesting examples of exact arc length calculations in calculus courses, we recall two large classes of functions f with the property that 1+(f′)2 has a primitive, including classical examples by Neile, van Heuraet and Fermat, as well as more recent ones induced… Continue Reading →
