Question 1
Using f(x) = sin(x), calculate the area under the curve from 0 to Ο/2 using both Trapezoidal and Simpson's rules with n = 4 intervals. Analyze which method yields less error and why.
π‘ Hint: Consider the behavior of sin(x) in multiple intervals.
Question 2
A smooth function's integral is calculated using both methods. Outline the implications of choosing a method depending on the smoothness of the function and computational resources.
π‘ Hint: Reflect on the characteristics of the functions involved.
