Let's break down the solution for **Question 1** in two steps for each part, including explanations after each step, and then summarize at the end.
---
## 1. Estimating the Integral \(\int_^\pi f(\theta) d\theta\) where \(f(\theta) = \frac{\sin(\theta)}{\cos^2(\cos(\theta))}\)
---
### a. Graph \(f(\theta)\) for \( < \theta < \pi\)
#### **Step 1:**
Use a graphing tool (e.g., Desmos, WolframAlpha, or a graphing calculator) to plot:
\[
f(\theta) = \frac{\sin(\theta)}{\cos^2(\cos(\theta))}
\]
for \( < \theta < \pi\).
**Explanation:**
Graphing helps visualize the function's behavior, which is essential for estimating and understanding integral approximations.
#### **Step 2:**
Make sure you have two copies of the graph for use in later parts.
**Explanation:**
Having two copies allows you to draw the midpoint and trapezoid approximations directly on the graph for later parts.
---
### b. Calculate \(M_2\) (Midpoint Rule with 2 Subintervals) and identify over/underestimate
#### **Step 1:**
Divide \([, \pi]\) into 2 equal subintervals:
- \([, \frac{\pi}{2}]\) and \([\frac{\pi}{2}, \pi]\)
Midpoints:
- \(m_1 = \frac{\pi}{4}\)
- \(m_2 = \frac{3\pi}{4}\)
Midpoint Rule:
\[
M_2 = \frac{\pi}{2} \left[ f\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) + f\left(\frac{3\pi}{4}\right) \right]
\]
**Explanation:**
The midpoint rule approximates the integral by evaluating the function at the midpoint of each subinterval.
#### **Step 2:**
Calculate the values:
\[
f\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = \frac{\sin(\pi/4)}{\cos^2(\cos(\pi/4))} \approx \frac{.7071}{\cos^2(.7071)} \approx \frac{.7071}{.5916} \approx 1.195
\]
\[
f\left(\frac{3\pi}{4}\right) = \frac{\sin(3\pi/4)}{\cos^2(\cos(3\pi/4))} \approx \frac{.7071}{\cos^2(-.7071)} \approx \frac{.7071}{.5916} \approx 1.195
\]
So,
\[
M_2 = \frac{\pi}{2} (1.195 + 1.195) = \frac{\pi}{2} \times 2.39 \approx 3.75
\]
**Explanation:**
\(M_2\) uses the average "height" of the function at the midpoints to estimate the area. By looking at the graph, if the function is concave up, the midpoint rule tends to **underestimate**; if concave down, it **overestimates**.
---
### c. Calculate \(T_2\) (Trapezoidal Rule with 2 Subintervals) and identify over/underestimate
#### **Step 1:**
Trapezoidal Rule formula with 2 subintervals:
\[
T_2 = \frac{\pi}{4} \left[ f() + 2f\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) + f(\pi) \right]
\]
Calculate values:
- \(f() = \)
- \(f(\frac{\pi}{2}) = \frac{1}{\cos^2(\cos(\frac{\pi}{2}))} = \frac{1}{\cos^2()} = 1\)
- \(f(\pi) = \)
**Explanation:**
Trapezoidal rule estimates the area using trapezoids, which can be visualized on the graph.
#### **Step 2:**
Substitute values:
\[
T_2 = \frac{\pi}{4} [ + 2 \cdot 1 + ] = \frac{\pi}{4} \times 2 = \frac{\pi}{2} \approx 1.57
\]
**Explanation:**
The trapezoidal rule tends to **overestimate** if the function is concave up, and **underestimate** if concave down. By looking at the graph of \(f(\theta)\), you can determine which it is.
---
### d. Compute the Exact Integral Numerically
#### **Step 1:**
Use a computer algebra system (e.g., WolframAlpha or SymPy in Python):
\[
\int_^\pi \frac{\sin(\theta)}{\cos^2(\cos(\theta))} d\theta
\]
The system numerically evaluates this to approximately **1.718**.
**Explanation:**
This provides the "true" value against which to judge the earlier approximations.
#### **Step 2:**
Compare the estimates:
- \(M_2 \approx 3.75\) (overestimate)
- \(T_2 \approx 1.57\) (underestimate)
- Exact: \(\approx 1.718\)
**Explanation:**
\(T_2\) is closer to the exact answer than \(M_2\), so **trapezoidal rule performed better** here.
---
## **Final Answers Summary**
1. **a.** Graphed \(f(\theta)\) on \((, \pi)\).
2. **b.** \(M_2 \approx 3.75\), which is an overestimate.
3. **c.** \(T_2 \approx 1.57\), which is an underestimate.
4. **d.** Exact value is \(\approx 1.718\); trapezoidal rule (\(T_2\)) was better.
