Length of Arc in Polar Plane | Applications of Integration
The length of arc on polar plane is given by the formula:

s=∫θ2θ1r2+(drdθ)2−−−−−−−−−−√ dθs=∫θ1θ2r2+(drdθ)2 dθ

The formula above is derived in two ways. See it here:

The Three-Moment Equation
The three-moment equation gives us the relation between the moments between any
three points in a beam and their relative vertical distances or deviations. This
method is widely used in finding the reactions in a continuous beam.
Consider three points on the beam loaded as shown.

Derivation / Proof of Ptolemy's Theorem for Cyclic Quadrilateral
Ptolemy's theorem for cyclic quadrilateral states that the product of the diagonals
is equal to the sum of the products of opposite sides. From the figure below,
Ptolemy's theorem can be written as
