## Riemann Sums

### Concept

A Riemann sum approximates the area under a curve by dividing the interval into rectangles:

1. Divide [a, b] into n equal subintervals, each of width Δx = (b-a)/n
2. For each subinterval, evaluate the function at the left endpoint
3. Sum the areas: S = sum of f(xᵢ) × Δx

### As n → infinity

The Riemann sum converges to the exact definite integral. More rectangles = better approximation.

हल किया गया उदाहरण

Approximate the integral of x² from 0 to 1 with 10 rectangles.

  1. Δx = (1-0)/10 = 0.1
  2. Left endpoints: 0, 0.1, 0.2, ..., 0.9
  3. Sum = (0² + 0.1² + 0.2² + ... + 0.9²) × 0.1
  4. Exact value = 1³/3 = 0.333333...
