Riemann Sums and Integral
Riemann sums and Integral was introduced by a German Mathematician Bernhard Riemann . What are Riemann sums? How do you convert integrals to Riemann sums? How do you calculate Riemann integral ? Its argument arose when we want to find the area under the curve of a function. Imagine that you are given a rectangle or any other polygon or a function how will you calculate the area under the curve ? Riemann sums (RS) is there to help you. I t is used to approximate the area under the curve of a function by adding shapes like rectangle, trapezoid, etc . But the question here is how can we make these rectangles? There are three choices when it comes to making rectangles to approximate the area.
