dc.description.abstract	Arc length's may be measured by numeric integration if the curves are given by analytic formulas. This report deals with an alternative way. A shortest polygonal Jordan curve may be used to estimate arc length's. This theoretically known result is illustrated in this report. Measured convergence of error values is discussed for a few examples of curves. A new error measure (approximation effectiveness) is proposed and discussed.	en
