原卷通用作答要求
Answer all questions. You should use a calculator where appropriate.
You must show all necessary working clearly; no marks will be given for unsupported answers from a calculator.
Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place for angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question.
Let f(x)=(2x2+1)−1/2, which is strictly decreasing on [0,1]. The rectangles in the diagram use the right endpoints. For example, writing the first terms and the final term, the area sum is
Write I=21ln(2+3). By (a), I=[arsinh(2x)/2]01, since arsinh(2)=ln(2+3) and arsinh(0)=0. The left-endpoint area sum is greater than I. It exceeds Sn by
