Numerical integration (quadrature)
In calculus, the trapezoidal rule (also known as the trapezoid rule or trapezium rule; see Trapezoid for more information on terminology) is a technique for approximating the definite integral. The trapezoidal rule works by approximating the region under the graph of the function as a trapezoid and calculating its area. It follows that The trapezoidal rule may be viewed as the result obtained by averaging the left and right Riemann sums, and is sometimes defined this way. The integral can be even better approximated by partitioning the integration interval, applying the trapezoidal rule to each subinterval, and summing the results. In practice, this "chained" (or "composite") trapezoidal rule is usually what is meant by "integrating with the trapezoidal rule". Let be a partition of such that and be the length of the -th subinterval (that is, ), then When the partition has a regular spacing, as is often the case, that is, when all the have the same value the formula can be simplified for calculation efficiency by factoring out:. The approximation becomes more accurate as the resolution of the partition increases (that is, for larger , all decrease). As discussed below, it is also possible to place error bounds on the accuracy of the value of a definite integral estimated using a trapezoidal rule. (Wikipedia).
What is the difference of a trapezoid and an isosceles trapezoid
๐ Learn how to solve problems with trapezoids. A trapezoid is a four-sided shape (quadrilateral) such that one pair of opposite sides are parallel. Some of the properties of trapezoids are: one pair of opposite sides are parallel, etc. A trapezoid is isosceles is one pair of opposite sides
