@ganeshie8 Calculus help please?

OpenStudy (lena772):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the intervals are of length \(\frac{\pi}{4}\) the left hand rectangle of the first picture as base \(\frac{\pi}{4}\) and height \(\sin(\frac{\pi}{4})=\frac{\sqrt2}{2}\) so the area is the product of those two numbers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the next rectangle in the same picture also has base \(\frac{\pi}{4}\) but the height is \(\sin(\frac{\pi}{2})=1\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the third rectangle has the same base and height as the first rectangle so the total area is \[\frac{\pi}{4}\left(\frac{\sqrt2}{2}+1+\frac{\sqrt2}{2}\right)\]

@ganeshie8 please

@satellite73 Is that when y=sin?

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

No, when y = sin, you should repent and rethink your life.

OpenStudy (lena772):

:(

OpenStudy (tkhunny):

You are picking the x-values and evaluating the function y = sin(x). The spacing of the x-values provides the width of the individual rectangles and the value of the function, y = sin(x) in this case, provides the height of the individual rectangles.
