16. Continued… LU LAU A The average of the lower and upper approximations is A is approximately

17. Upper and Lower Sums The procedure we just used can be generalized to the methodology to calculate the area of a plane region. We begin with subdividing the interval [ a, b ] into n subintervals, each of equal width  x = ( b – a )/ n. The endpoints of the intervals are

18. Upper and Lower Sums Because the function f(x) is continuous, the Extreme Value Theorem guarantees the existence of a minimum and a maximum value of f(x) in each subinterval. We know that the height of the i -th inscribed rectangle is f(m i ) and that of circumscribed rectangle is f(M i ).

19. Upper and Lower Sums The i-th regional area A i is bounded by the inscribed and circumscribed rectangles. We know that the relationship among the Lower Sum, area of the region, and the Upper Sum is
