Topic 6.2: Approximating Areas with Riemann Sums
Learning Objective: LIM-5.A
Approximate a definite integral using geometric and numerical methods.
Essential Knowledge: LIM-5.A.1
Definite integrals can be approximated for functions that are represented graphically, numerically, analytically, and verbally.
Essential Knowledge: LIM-5.A.2
Definite integrals can be approximated using a left Riemann sum, a right Riemann sum, a midpoint Riemann sum, or a trapezoidal sum; approximations can be computed using either uniform or nonuniform partitions.
Essential Knowledge: LIM-5.A.3
Definite integrals can be approximated using numerical methods, with or without technology.
Essential Knowledge: LIM-5.A.4
Depending on the behavior of a function, it may be possible to determine whether an approximation for a definite integral is an underestimate or overestimate for the value of the definite integral.
