The Trapezoid Rule for Approximating Integrals.
In this video, I show the formula and give one simple example of using the Trapezoid Rule to approximate the value of a definite integral.

  • Can you make a video about Trap Rule, but with unequal intervals?

  • @Thfro920 you dont do it with unequal intervals.

  • @SuperArglebargle read your book. they derive it there. sorry to disappoint you m'lord.

  • @SuperArglebargle btw, this is so easy to derive if you were not so mindless and thought about it for like .1 seconds. i guess you need to be spoon fed all things. i used to have a teacher and he would tell students they were like little babies. now i know what he meant!

  • seriously though, u're the best!! your videos have helped me countless of times... many thanks:)

  • God bless you Sir Patrick for clarifying the Trapezoidal Rule for me!

  • This was extremely helpful. Why can't my book be written in your words instead of making it so complicated? For some reason it feels the need to make every example with pi instead of just using a simple example like the one in the video...

  • @1337Bigman Watch the video again dude, you'll get it...
