5.1 Estimating Areas with Sums
Rectangular Approximation Method (RAM)
LRAM (height of rectangle
is determined by the value
of the function at the
rectangle's LEFT edge)
RRAM (height of rectangle is
determined by the value of the
function at the rectangle's
RIGHT edge)
MRAM (height of rectangle is
determined by the value of the
function at the MIDPOINT of
the rectangle's base)
