Finding Areas What is the area of the region R that is enclosed between the x-axis and the graph of f(x) = 2x x2/2, for x between 1 and 4?
For n = 6 rectangles Sum of areas called S6 = f(m1)x + f(m2)x + f(m3)x + f(m4)x + f(m5)x + f(m6)x = 4.531250.
More rectangles: Larger n As n increases, the value of Sn increases, getting closer and closer to the true are under the curve.
Integral Notation We write the value of the midpoint sum as n gets very large by an integral
