What is a midpoint Riemann Sum?

Back

A method for approximating the area under a curve by dividing the interval into subintervals, using the midpoint of each subinterval to calculate the height of rectangles.

How do you calculate the area using a midpoint Riemann Sum with 3 subintervals from 0 to 3?

Back

1. Divide the interval [0, 3] into 3 equal parts: [0, 1], [1, 2], [2, 3]. 2. Find the midpoints: 0.5, 1.5, 2.5. 3. Evaluate the function at these midpoints and multiply by the width of the subintervals (1). 4. Sum the areas of the rectangles.
