That is exactly what we will do here with integrals and Riemann Sums.

    As we can see in Figure, if f(x)0 over [a,b], then \displaystyle \sum^n_{i=1}f(m_i)Δx corresponds to the sum of the areas of rectangles approximating the area between the graph of \( f(...As we can see in Figure, if f(x)≥0 over [a,b], then \displaystyle \sum^n_{i=1}f(m_i)Δx corresponds to the sum of the areas of rectangles approximating the area between the graph of f(x) and the x-axis over [a,b]. The trapezoidal rule tends to overestimate the value of a definite integral systematically over intervals where the function is concave up and to underestimate the value of a definite integral systematically over intervals where the function is concave down.

It also covers the concept of integration, detailing its use for calculating distance from velocity, its theoretical principles like area approximation and the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, and various integration techniques with specific applications, including net change and functions such as exponential, logarithmic, and inverse trigonometric.
