Explain geometrically why the red triangle has half the area of the blue rectangle. ET 4.2b h h b b Congruent Triangles A = bh A = ½ bh Explain how you could find the area of the green irregular polygon.
Estimate the area of a circle. Actual is somewhere between the under & over. Underestimate (Inscribed Triangles): Overestimate (Circumscribed): If you want a better estimate… increase the # of triangles.
Let’s try this same method to find the area under the curve on the interval [0,2]. Underestimate: Right Hand Rectangles (2/5, 4.84) (4/5, 4.36) (6/5, 3.56) (8/5, 2.44) (10/5, 1) (2/5)*f(2/5)+(2/5)*f(4/5)+(2/5)*f(6/5)+(2/5)*f(8/5)+(2/5)*f(10/5) (2/5)(4.84)+(2/5)(4.36)+(2/5)(3.56)+(2/5)(2.44)+(2/5)(1) = 6.48
Another way to write it. (2/5)*f(2/5)+(2/5)*f(4/5)+(2/5)*f(6/5)+(2/5)*f(8/5)+(2/5)*f(10/5) (2/5)(4.84)+(2/5)(4.36)+(2/5)(3.56)+(2/5)(2.44)+(2/5)(1) = 6.48
Let’s try this same method to find the area under the curve on the interval [0,2]. Overestimate: Left Hand Rectangles (0, 5) (2/5, 4.84) (4/5, 3.36) (6/5, 3.56) (8/5, 2.44)) (2/5)*f(0/5)+(2/5)*f(2/5)+(2/5)*f(4/5)+(2/5)*f(6/5)+(2/5)*f(8/5) (2/5)(5)+(2/5)(4.84)+(2/5)(4.36)+(2/5)(3.56)+(2/5)(2.44) = 8.08
How can you make a better estimate with either right or left hand rectangles? Increase the number of rectangles!
