Key Concepts

Composite Trapezoidal Rule

The composite trapezoidal rule extends the basic trapezoidal rule by dividing the integration interval into smaller subintervals, applying the trapezoidal rule on each subinterval, and summing the results. This approach generally increases the accuracy of the approximation, especially when the function exhibits nonlinear behavior over larger intervals.

Trapezoidal Rule

The trapezoidal rule is a numerical integration method that approximates the region under a curve by dividing it into trapezoids rather than rectangles. It is based on the idea that a linear approximation between two points on the curve can provide a reasonable estimation of the area under the curve.

Step Size Calculation

Step size is the width of each subinterval in a numerical integration method and is calculated as the difference between the upper and lower limits divided by the number of subintervals. It is crucial in determining the points at which the function is evaluated.

Definite Integral

A definite integral represents the accumulation of quantities, typically areas under curves, over a specific interval. It is a fundamental concept in calculus and is used to compute quantities such as area, volume, and cumulative value.

Numerical Integration

Numerical integration encompasses a variety of algorithms to approximate the value of definite integrals when manual integration is difficult or when an analytic solution is not feasible. These methods replace the continuous function with a discrete approximation and sum these values over subintervals.
