To locate the maximum of f on the subintervals of [0,1] and compute U(P,f ), sketch the graph of f(x)=arctan x. Then t1**=1/4, the point where f has its maximum value on the subinterval [0,1/4], t2**=1/3, the point where f has its maximum value on [1/4,1/3], t3**=1/2, the point where f has its maximum value on the subinterval [1/3,1/2], t4**=3/4, the point where f has its maximum value on the subinterval [1/2,3/4], t5**=4/5, the point where f has its maximum value on the subinterval [3/4,4/5] and t6**=1, the point where f has its maximum value on the subinterval [4/5,1].

By Prop. 3.2.32, A ½ [L(P,f)+U(P,f)] = ½ [ 0.357 + 0.516 ] = 0.437 with error less than ½[U(P,f)-L(P,f)] = ½ [ 0.516 – 0.357 ] = 0.080. Using the Riemann sum of Example 3.2C (3), the inequality L(P,f) R(P,T,f) U(P,f) is illustrated by: 0.357 0.437 0.516
