Identify the integral to evaluate: \(\int_{1}^{2} x \, dx\).
Evaluate the integral directly by finding the antiderivative of the function \(f(x) = x\). The antiderivative is \(F(x) = \frac{1}{2}x^{2}\).
Apply the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus by computing \(F(2) - F(1)\), which gives the exact value of the integral.
Recall the formula for the Trapezoidal Rule error bound \(|E_{T}| \leq \frac{(b - a)^{3}}{12n^{2}} \max_{a \leq x \leq b} |f''(x)|\), where \(n\) is the number of subintervals, \(a=1\), and \(b=2\).
Calculate the second derivative \(f''(x)\) of the function \(f(x) = x\), which is zero, and use this to find the exact error bound \(|E_{T}|\) for the Trapezoidal Rule.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Trapezoidal Rule

The Trapezoidal Rule is a numerical method to approximate definite integrals by dividing the area under a curve into trapezoids rather than rectangles. It estimates the integral by averaging the function values at the endpoints of subintervals and multiplying by the subinterval width, providing a better approximation than simple Riemann sums.

Exact Evaluation of Definite Integrals

Exact evaluation involves finding the precise value of a definite integral using antiderivatives and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. For ∫ from 1 to 2 of x dx, the antiderivative of x is (1/2)x², and evaluating it at the bounds gives the exact area under the curve.

Error Estimation in Numerical Integration (|ET|)

Error estimation quantifies the difference between the exact integral value and its numerical approximation. For the Trapezoidal Rule, the error bound |ET| depends on the second derivative of the function and the width of the subintervals, helping assess the accuracy of the approximation.
