Find the area of the region bounded by y = x2 and y = 2x - x2. Using trapezoidal rule, approximate int12 frac1x dx with n=5. [5+5]
Find the area of the region bounded by $y = x^2$ and $y = 2x - x^2$.
Using trapezoidal rule, approximate $\int_1^2 \frac{1}{x} dx$ with $n=5$.

- Curves: $y = x^2$ and $y = 2x - x^2$ - Integral: $\int1^2 \frac{1}{x},dx$, $n = 5$ --- $$x^2 = 2x - x^2 \implies 2x^2 - 2x = 0 \implies 2x(x-1) = 0$$ $$x = 0 \quad \text{or} \quad x = 1$$ At $x = 0.5$: - $y = x^2 = 0.25$ - $y = 2x - x^2 = 0.75$ So $y = 2x - x^2$ is above $y = x^2$ on $[0,1]$. ...
