To calculate : The estimated area of the given ellipse by using the rectangles of width
The area of the ellipse using the rectangles of width
Given information :
The equation of the ellipse is
Formula used:
Area
Calculation :
If the width of the rectangles is
The height of the first rectangle will be,
Calculate the height of other nine rectangles using the formula
Calculate the total area
So, the area of the portion of ellipse in first quadrant is
The total area of the ellipse will be,
The area of the ellipse using formula is,
Therefore, the area of the ellipse using the rectangles of width
