for #21, you may figure out the answer without actually evaluating the integral

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

definite integral represents the area under the curve in the interval over which you're integrating

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Look at the integrand \(\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9-4x^2}}\) Over the given interval \((0,1)\), notice that the minimum value is \(\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}} \) and the maximum value is \(\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{5}} \)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

that is, the integral must evaluate to some number between \(0.67\) and \(0.89\) look at the options, there is only one option falling in that interval

OpenStudy (1018):

hey i got kinda lost on the minimum and maximum value thing. haha. sorry i really need a refresh on this topics

OpenStudy (1018):

but if it's possible how do i get it with integration, because i think they check the solutions in this exams.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

is this an exam ?

OpenStudy (1018):

no, it's a reviewer, the exam is on sunday. haha. what i meant was they need solutions for the upcoming exam. :)

OpenStudy (1018):

sorry for the confusion. :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

okay good :) if you want, i can explain that maximum and minimum thingy... it won't take much time

OpenStudy (1018):

yes please, i really got interested on that one. haha

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

it is indeed a very interesting way to approximate the value of a definite integral

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

how good are you at interpreting the definite integral as area under the curve ?

OpenStudy (1018):

not really good to be honest.
