Definite Integral and Area Computation
‘The area bounded by regular plane figure such as triangle, quadrilateral,

curve of a function cannot be calculated by such method. The area bounded
by the curve can be calculated by using definite integral.

Estimation of Error
The trapezoidal error or error relative to trapezoidal rule is the difference
between the actual value of the integral ffx) and. the coresponding
