And there is also the Measure tool (hidden under the Eyedropper).

The measure tool only measure the length and width of the figure, not of the path....

If you choose in the Document Info Panel, Objects it will give you the length of a path.

If you direct select a segment of a path, copy and paste it you will see the length of the segment (which you can delete.

If you copy a curved line segment it will give you the lenght of the curved segment.

If you draw a line between anchor points it will give you the distance between these anchor points.
