TI-85 Program: INTEGRAT This program will approximate the area of the region bounded by the x-axis, the curve y = f(x), x = a, and x = b using left-hand sums, right-hand sums, midpoint sums, trapezoid rule or Simpson's rule. You can view the results both graphically and numerically or numerically only. 1. Run the program, work your way across the menu, store the function ( f(x) ), set the viewing window (Range), view the graph (Graph), select a method (Method). 2. Select the method: rectangles (RECTA), trapezoids (TRAPE), Simpsons rule (SIMPS), numerical integration (NUMIN). This option calls the programs RECTANGL, TRAPEZOI, SIMPSON, or NUMINT respectively. 3. Follow the instructions for the corresponding program. Return will allow you to go back to the previous menu, Exit will quit the program. Last updated: 2/9/98
