In this work, we propose an optimal analytical approach to investigate a simple pendulum with air resistance. The Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method (OHAM) was successfully applied to obtain an explicit and accurate analytical solution. Numerical simulations were developed in order to validate the analytical results.
