What does the Trapezium Rule do?
Approximates the curve to straight lines and calculates the area of the resultant trapezia?
3 of 8
What does the Mid-Ordinate Rule do?
Takes the midpoint between two ordinates as the height and approximates the area through a series of rectangles
4 of 8
What does Simspons Rule do?
Approximates the curve as a series of quadratics, and this is usually much more accurate. Gives a better approximation and it is only valid when used with an even number of strips.
