YOUR TURN 1 Repeat Example
EXAMPLE 1 Approximation of Area
Consider the region bounded by the
- Approximate the area of the region using two rectangles. Determine the height of the rectangle by the value of the function at the left endpoint.
- Repeat part (a) using the value of the function at the right endpoint to determine the height of the rectangle.
- Repeat part (a) using the value of the function at the midpoint to determine the height of the rectangle.
- We can improve the accuracy of the previous approximations by increasing the number of rectangles. Repeat part (a) using four rectangles.
- Repeat part (a) using eight rectangles.
