Q. Use the error formula to find n such that the error is less than or equal to 0.00001 using the Trapezoidal Rule.∫02πsinxdx
Error Bound Calculation: The error bound for the Trapezoidal Rule is given by:Et≤12n2(b−a)3⋅max∣f′′(x)∣ on [a,b]Here, a=0, b=2π, and we need to find max∣f′′(x)∣ for f(x)=sin(x).
Second Derivative of sin(x): The second derivative of f(x)=sin(x) is f′′(x)=−sin(x). The maximum value of ∣f′′(x)∣ on [0,2π] is 1 since ∣sin(x)∣≤1 for all x.
Error Formula Substitution: Now, plug in the values into the error formula:Et≤(2π−0)3/(12n2)×1We want Et≤0.00001.
Solving for n: Solve for n:0.00001≥(2π)3/(12n2)n2≥(2π)3/(12×0.00001)n≥(2π)3/(12×0.00001)
