Simpson's Rule of Thirds is a clever method for calculating the area under a curve with
rectangles.
Details:
Consider a graph that illustrates a change in a certain variable over time, such as a growing
plant's height. We may estimate the total area beneath that graph using Simpson's 1/3 Rule.
-We divide the region beneath the curve into rectangle pairs.
-After that, we make a mini-triangle form for every pair.
-To determine the overall area under the curve, we sum the areas of each of these mini-
triangles.
-The reason it's named the 1/3 Rule is that we employ groups of two rectangles, or roughly one-
third of all the rectangles.
Details:
Consider the same graph once more, but this time Simpson's 3/8 Rule will be used to estimate
the area.
Without having to measure every little aspect, these rules allow us to better comprehend how
things evolve over time. They resemble quick cuts for calculating the areas under curves.
