Given the following path (for example) which describes a SVG cubic bezier curve: \"M300,140C300,40,500,40,500,140\", and assuming a straight line connecting the end points 3

Interactive Demo: Area of Path via Subdivision

Screenshot of Demo

At its core the above demo uses functions for adaptively subdividing path into a polygon and computing the area of a polygon:

// path:      an SVG <path> element
// threshold: a 'close-enough' limit (ignore subdivisions with area less than this)
// segments:  (optional) how many segments to subdivisions to create at each level
// returns:   a new SVG <polygon> element
function pathToPolygonViaSubdivision(path,threshold,segments){
  if (!threshold) threshold = 0.0001; // Get really, really close
  if (!segments)  segments = 3;       // 2 segments creates 0-area triangles

  var points = subdivide( ptWithLength(0), ptWithLength( path.getTotalLength() ) );
  for (var i=points.length;i--;) points[i] = [points[i].x,points[i].y];

  var doc  = path.ownerDocument;
  var poly = doc.createElementNS('http://www.w3.org/2000/svg','polygon');
  poly.setAttribute('points',points.join(' '));
  return poly;

  // Record the distance along the path with the point for later reference
  function ptWithLength(d) {
    var pt = path.getPointAtLength(d); pt.d = d; return pt;
  }

  // Create segments evenly spaced between two points on the path.
  // If the area of the result is less than the threshold return the endpoints.
  // Otherwise, keep the intermediary points and subdivide each consecutive pair.
  function subdivide(p1,p2){
    var pts=[p1];
    for (var i=1,step=(p2.d-p1.d)/segments;i<segments;i++){
      pts[i] = ptWithLength(p1.d + step*i);
    }
    pts.push(p2);
    if (polyArea(pts)<=threshold) return [p1,p2];
    else {
      var result = [];
      for (var i=1;i<pts.length;++i){
        var mids = subdivide(pts[i-1], pts[i]);
        mids.pop(); // We'll get the last point as the start of the next pair
        result = result.concat(mids)
      }
      result.push(p2);
      return result;
    }
  }

  // Calculate the area of an polygon represented by an array of points
  function polyArea(points){
    var p1,p2;
    for(var area=0,len=points.length,i=0;i<len;++i){
      p1 = points[i];
      p2 = points[(i-1+len)%len]; // Previous point, with wraparound
      area += (p2.x+p1.x) * (p2.y-p1.y);
    }
    return Math.abs(area/2);
  }
}

// Return the area for an SVG <polygon> or <polyline>
// Self-crossing polys reduce the effective 'area'
function polyArea(poly){
  var area=0,pts=poly.points,len=pts.numberOfItems;
  for(var i=0;i<len;++i){
    var p1 = pts.getItem(i), p2=pts.getItem((i+-1+len)%len);
    area += (p2.x+p1.x) * (p2.y-p1.y);
  }
  return Math.abs(area/2);
}

Following is the original answer, which uses a different (non-adaptive) technique for converting the <path> to a <polygon>.

At its core the above demo uses functions for approximating a path with a polygon and computing the area of a polygon.

    area += (p2.x+p1.x) * (p2.y-p1.y);
  }
  return Math.abs(area/2);
}

// Create a <polygon> approximation for an SVG <path>
function pathToPolygon(path,samples){
  if (!samples) samples = 0;
  var doc = path.ownerDocument;
  var poly = doc.createElementNS('http://www.w3.org/2000/svg','polygon');

      }else{

I had the same problem but I am not using javascript so I cannot use the accepted answer of @Phrogz. ~~In addition the SVGPathElement.getPointAtLength() which is used in the accepted answer is deprecated according to Mozilla.~~

When describing a Bézier curve with the points (x0/y0), (x1/y1), (x2/y2) and (x3/y3) (where (x0/y0) is the start point and (x3/y3) the end point) you can use the parametrized form:

^{(source: Wikipedia)}

with B(t) being the point on the Bézier curve and P_i the Bézier curve defining point (see above, P₀ is the starting point, ...). t is the running variable with 0 ≤ t ≤ 1.

This form makes it very easy to approximate a Bézier curve: You can generate as much points as you want by using t = i / n_points. (Note that you have to add the start and the end point). The result is a polygon. You can then use the shoelace formular (like @Phrogz did in his solution) to calculate the area. Note that for the shoelace formular the order of the points is important. By using t as the parameter the order will always be correct.

To match the question here is an interactive example in the code snippet, also written in javascript. This can be adopted to other languages. It does not use any javascript (or svg) specific commands (except for the drawings). Note that this requires a browser which supports HTML5 to work.

Square area covered by radius vector of a point moving in 2D plane is 1/2*integral[(x-xc)*dy/dt - (y-yc)*dx/dt]dt. Here xc and yc are coordinates of the origin point (center). Derivation for the case of Bezier curves is rather cumbersome but possible. See functions squareAreaQuadr and squareAreaCubic below. I have tested and retested these formulae, rather sure, that there are no mistakes. This signature gives positive square area for clockwise rotation in SVG coordinates plane.

    var xc=0.1, yc=0.2, x0=0.9, y0=0.1, x1=0.9, y1=0.9, x2=0.5, y2=0.5, x3=0.1, y3=0.9

Firstly, I am not so familier with bezier curves, but I know that they are continuous functions. If you ensure that your cubic curve does not intersect itself, you may integrate it in closed form (I mean by using analytic integrals) on the given enclosing domain ([a-b]) and subtract the area of triangle that is formed by the the end joining straight line and X axis. In case of intersection with the Bezier curve and end joining straight line, you may divide into sections and try to calculate each area separately in a consistent manner..

For me suitable search terms are "continuous function integration" "integrals" "area under a function" "calculus"

OF course you may generate discrete data from your bezier curve fn and obtain discrete X-Y data and calculate the integral approximately.
