2) TRAPEZOIDAL APPROXIMATION OF THE AREA UNDER A CURVE (BOTH FORMS)

• Recall that Tn was all about approximating the area under a curve. If you subdivide an interval [a, b] into equal sized subintervals, then you can imagine a string of inputs or points c0, c1, c2, c3, …, cn-1, cn between a and b, and you can write the trapezoidal sum as Ln is the left-hand approximation and Rn is the right hand approximation for the area under a curve.

29) TAYLOR’S THEOREM

If you want to approximate the value of a function, like sinx, you need some process or formula to do it. Taylor decided that a polynomial could approximate the value of a function if you make sure it has the requisite juicy tidbits: the same value at a center point (x = a), the same slope at that point, the same concavity at that point, the same jerk at that point, and so on. The led him to create the following formula:
