Let gg be differentiable on [0,2][0,2]. The limit of Riemann sums lim⁡n→∞∑i=1n1+(g′(xi))2 Δxi\displaystyle \lim_{n\to\infty}\sum_{i=1}^{n}\sqrt{1+\bigl(g'(x_{i})\bigr)^{2}}\,\Delta x_{i} approximates the length of the graph of gg on this interval. Write this limit as an equivalent definite integral.
