This worksheet covers the concept of riemann sums and function approximation. Students are required to write riemann sums for a given function on a specific interval using different partitions and endpoint selections. Additionally, they are asked to interpret a given sum as a riemann sum for a function on the interval [0, 1].

NAME: Section:
(b) Use the regular partition of [1, 2] into n equal subintervals and select the right hand endpoints for the xโ i to write a Riemann Sum for f (x).
(c) Compute the value of the Riemann Sum in part (b) as a function of n, then take
the limit as n โ โ to determine the value of

Explain why the sum can be interpreted as a Riemann sum for a function f (x) on the interval [0, 1]. That is, guess the function f (x), the partition of the interval โx, and the xโ i selection, so that the sum is
โn i=1 f^ (x
