4.MD.D.8

Recognize area as additive. Find areas of rectilinear figures by decomposing them into non-overlapping rectangles and adding the areas of the non-overlapping parts, applying this technique to solve real-world problems.

Example Problems
Approximate the area between the x‑axis and from to using a left Riemann sum with 4 equal subdivisions.
What is the approximate area (in
)?
Approximate the area between the x‑axis and f(x) from x = –1 to x = 10 using a right Riemann sum with 5 unequal subdivisions.
x–1135710
f(x)461325
