As you increase the subintervals the area will be closer and closer to the real value. In other words your approximation gets better.
As you increase the intervals, there will be more rectanagles and the added area of these rectangles are converging towards the actual area under the curve.
Hey,
We can see here 2 of the angles are equal and the third one is a right angle right?
That means it is an isosceles triangle since they have 2 equel angles and a right anlgle.
Another feature of the isosceles triangle is that 2 sides are equal.
We are given one side is 5.5 right?
So the side BC has to be 5.5 or the side AB has to be 5.5
In isosceles triangles the side opposite to the 90 degree angle is the hypotenuse.This means it is the longest angle.
So it has to be AB which is equal to 5.5 since BC is the hypotenuse.
Hope this helps,Happy New Year
step 2 i believe is the answer
He has 21 classmates, you know this by, taking 17.5 and dividing it by the 5/6. This leading to get you 21.
