Document Summary

Practice problems 9: use di erentials (or a linearization) to estimate the value of 3. 1 + x3 taken over the interval: approximate the area under the curve of the function y = [0, 1], by dividing the interval into 5 equal parts, and making rectangles touching the curve at sample points in the interval. Hint: divide the polygon into n equal triangles. Then the angle in each triangle at the centre of the polygon is 2 n . To put it better, the area of n an. Find the area of a circle of radius r by evaluating this limit. the circle will just be lim.
