  • Crofton's formula on Euclidean plane $E^2$ states: Let $\Gamma$ be a rectifiable curve of length L and let G be a straight line. Then $$ \int_{G \cap \Gamma \neq \phi} n dG = 2L $$ where n is the number of the intersection points of G with the curve $\Gamma$.

  • In this paper, we obtain an integral formula relating the measure of great spheres $S^{n-2}$ and arc length of a curve on the unit sphere $S^{n-1$ As an application of the formula, we develop a geometric inequality for a spherical curve and prone generalized version of Fenchel's theorem in $S^n$.
