## 8.6: Numerical Integration

In the following problems, compute the trapezoid and Simpson approximations using 4 subintervals, and compute the error estimate for each. (Finding the maximum values of the second and fourth derivatives can be challenging for some of these; you may use a graphing calculator or computer software to estimate the maximum values.) If you have access to Sage or similar software, approximate each integral to two decimal places. You can use this Sage worksheet to get started.

Ex 8.6.1 $$\int_1^3 x\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.2 $$\int_0^3 x^2\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.5 $$\int_1^2 {1\over 1+x^2}\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.6 $$\int_0^1 x\sqrt{1+x}\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.7 $$\int_1^5 {x\over 1+x}\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.8 $$\int_0^1 \sqrt{x^3+1}\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.9 $$\int_0^1 \sqrt{x^4+1}\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.10 $$\int_1^4 \sqrt{1+1/x}\,dx$$ (answer)

Ex 8.6.11 Using Simpson's rule on a parabola $$f(x)$$, even with just two subintervals, gives the exact value of the integral, because the parabolas used to approximate $$f$$ will be $$f$$ itself. Remarkably, Simpson's rule also computes the integral of a cubic function $$f(x)=ax^3+bx^2+cx+d$$ exactly. Show this is true by showing that

$\int_{x_0}^{x_2} f(x)\,dx={x_2-x_0\over3\cdot2}(f(x_0)+4f((x_0+x_2)/2)+f(x_2)).$

This does require a bit of messy algebra, so you may prefer to use Sage.

These problems require the techniques of this chapter, and are in no particular order. Some problems may be done in more than one way.
