How to find the area of ​​a curved trapezoid. Area of ​​a curved trapezoid

Figure, limited by schedule continuous non-negative function $f(x)$ on the segment $$ and the straight lines $y=0, \ x=a$ and $x=b$ is called a curvilinear trapezoid.

Area corresponding curved trapezoid calculated by the formula:

$S=\int\limits_(a)^(b)(f(x)dx).$ (*)

We will conditionally divide problems to find the area of ​​a curvilinear trapezoid into $4$ types. Let's look at each type in more detail.

Type I: a curved trapezoid is specified explicitly. Then immediately apply the formula (*).

For example, find the area of ​​a curvilinear trapezoid bounded by the graph of the function $y=4-(x-2)^(2)$ and the lines $y=0, \ x=1$ and $x=3$.

Let's draw this curved trapezoid.

Using formula (*), we find the area of ​​this curvilinear trapezoid.

$S=\int\limits_(1)^(3)(\left(4-(x-2)^(2)\right)dx)=\int\limits_(1)^(3)(4dx)- \int\limits_(1)^(3)((x-2)^(2)dx)=4x|_(1)^(3) – \left.\frac((x-2)^(3) )(3)\right|_(1)^(3)=$

$=4(3-1)-\frac(1)(3)\left((3-2)^(3)-(1-2)^(3)\right)=4 \cdot 2 – \frac (1)(3)\left((1)^(3)-(-1)^(3)\right) = 8 – \frac(1)(3)(1+1) =$

$=8-\frac(2)(3)=7\frac(1)(3)$ (units$^(2)$).

Type II: the curved trapezoid is specified implicitly. In this case, the straight lines $x=a, \ x=b$ are usually not specified or partially specified. In this case, you need to find the intersection points of the functions $y=f(x)$ and $y=0$. These points will be points $a$ and $b$.

For example, find the area of ​​a figure bounded by the graphs of the functions $y=1-x^(2)$ and $y=0$.

Let's find the intersection points. To do this, we equate the right-hand sides of the functions.

Thus, $a=-1$ and $b=1$. Let's draw this curved trapezoid.

Let's find the area of ​​this curved trapezoid.

$S=\int\limits_(-1)^(1)(\left(1-x^(2)\right)dx)=\int\limits_(-1)^(1)(1dx)-\int \limits_(-1)^(1)(x^(2)dx)=x|_(-1)^(1) – \left.\frac(x^(3))(3)\right|_ (-1)^(1)=$

$=(1-(-1))-\frac(1)(3)\left(1^(3)-(-1)^(3)\right)=2 – \frac(1)(3) \left(1+1\right) = 2 – \frac(2)(3) = 1\frac(1)(3)$ (units$^(2)$).

Type III: the area of ​​a figure limited by the intersection of two continuous non-negative functions. This figure will not be a curved trapezoid, which means you cannot calculate its area using formula (*). How to be? It turns out that the area of ​​this figure can be found as the difference between the areas of curvilinear trapezoids bounded by the upper function and $y=0$ ($S_(uf)$), and the lower function and $y=0$ ($S_(lf)$), where the role of $x=a, \ x=b$ is played by the $x$ coordinates of the points of intersection of these functions, i.e.

$S=S_(uf)-S_(lf)$. (**)

The most important thing when calculating such areas is not to “miss” with the choice of the upper and lower functions.

For example, find the area of ​​a figure bounded by the functions $y=x^(2)$ and $y=x+6$.

Let's find the intersection points of these graphs:

According to Vieta's theorem,

$x_(1)=-2,\x_(2)=3.$

That is, $a=-2,\b=3$. Let's draw a figure:

Thus, the top function is $y=x+6$, and the bottom function is $y=x^(2)$. Next, we find $S_(uf)$ and $S_(lf)$ using formula (*).

$S_(uf)=\int\limits_(-2)^(3)((x+6)dx)=\int\limits_(-2)^(3)(xdx)+\int\limits_(-2 )^(3)(6dx)=\left.\frac(x^(2))(2)\right|_(-2)^(3) + 6x|_(-2)^(3)= 32 .5$ (units$^(2)$).

$S_(lf)=\int\limits_(-2)^(3)(x^(2)dx)=\left.\frac(x^(3))(3)\right|_(-2) ^(3) = \frac(35)(3)$ (units$^(2)$).

Let's substitute what we found into (**) and get:

$S=32.5-\frac(35)(3)= \frac(125)(6)$ (units$^(2)$).

Type IV: figure area, limited function(s) that do not satisfy the non-negativity condition. In order to find the area of ​​such a figure, you need to be symmetrical about the $Ox$ axis ( in other words, put “minuses” in front of the functions) display the area and, using the methods outlined in types I – III, find the area of ​​the displayed area. This area will be the required area. First, you may have to find the intersection points of the function graphs.

For example, find the area of ​​a figure bounded by the graphs of the functions $y=x^(2)-1$ and $y=0$.

Let's find the intersection points of the function graphs:

those. $a=-1$, and $b=1$. Let's draw the area.

Let's display the area symmetrically:

$y=0 \ \Rightarrow \ y=-0=0$

$y=x^(2)-1 \ \Rightarrow \ y= -(x^(2)-1) = 1-x^(2)$.

The result is a curvilinear trapezoid bounded by the graph of the function $y=1-x^(2)$ and $y=0$. This is a problem to find a curved trapezoid of the second type. We have already solved it. The answer was: $S= 1\frac(1)(3)$ (units $^(2)$). This means that the area of ​​the required curvilinear trapezoid is equal to:

$S=1\frac(1)(3)$ (units$^(2)$).

It is required to calculate the area of ​​a curved trapezoid bounded by straight lines,
,
and curve
.

Let's split the segment
dotmina elementary segments, length
th segment
. Let us restore perpendiculars from the points of division of the segment to the intersection with the curve
, let
. As a result we get elementary trapezoids, the sum of their areas is obviously equal to the sum of a given curvilinear trapezoid.

Let us determine the largest and smallest values ​​of the function on each elementary interval; on the first interval this is
, on the second
and so on. Let's calculate the amounts

The first sum represents the area of ​​all described, the second is the area of ​​all rectangles inscribed in a curved trapezoid.

It is clear that the first sum gives an approximate value of the area of ​​the trapezoid “with an excess”, the second - “with a deficiency”. The first sum is called the upper Darboux sum, the second – accordingly, the lower Darboux sum. Thus, the area of ​​a curved trapezoid is satisfies the inequality
. Let us find out how the Darboux sums behave as the number of points of partition of the segment increases
. Let the number of partition points increase by one, and it is in the middle of the interval
. Now the number is like

inscribed and circumscribed rectangles increased by one. Let us consider how the lower Darboux sum changed. Instead of a square
th inscribed rectangle, equal to
we get the sum of the areas of two rectangles
, since the length
can't be less
the smallest value of the function at
. On the other side,
, because the
there can't be more
the largest value of the function on the interval
. So, adding new points to split a segment increases the value of the lower Darboux sum and decreases the upper Darboux sum. In this case, the lower Darboux sum, with any increase in the number of partition points, cannot exceed the value of any upper sum, since the sum of the areas of the described rectangles is always more than the amount areas of rectangles inscribed in a curved trapezoid.

Thus, the sequence of lower Darboux sums increases with the number of points of partition of the segment and is bounded from above; according to the well-known theorem, it has a limit. This limit is the area of ​​a given curved trapezoid.

Similarly, the sequence of upper Darboux sums decreases with increasing number of points of partition of the interval and is limited from below by any lower Darboux sum, which means that it also has a limit, and it is also equal to the area of ​​the curvilinear trapezoid.

Therefore, to calculate the area of ​​a curved trapezoid, it is enough to partitions of the interval, determine either the lower or upper Darboux sum, and then calculate
, or
.

However, such a solution to the problem presupposes for any, arbitrarily large number partitions
, finding the largest or smallest value of a function on each elementary interval, which is a very labor-intensive task.

A simpler solution is obtained using the Riemann integral sum, which is

Where
some point of each elementary interval, that is
. Consequently, the Riemann integral sum is the sum of the areas of all possible rectangles, and
. As shown above, the limits of the upper and lower Darboux sums are the same and equal to the area of ​​the curved trapezoid. Using one of the properties of the limit of a function (the two-police rule), we obtain that for any partition of the segment
and selecting points The area of ​​a curved trapezoid can be calculated using the formula
.

During the classes

In previous classes we learned to calculate the areas of figures whose boundaries are broken lines. In mathematics, there are methods that allow you to calculate the areas of figures bounded by curves. Such figures are called curvilinear trapezoids, and their area is calculated using antiderivatives.

Curvilinear trapezoid ( slide 1)

A curved trapezoid is a figure bounded by the graph of a function, ( sh.m.), straight x = a And x = b and x-axis

Various types of curved trapezoids ( slide 2)

We are considering different kinds curvilinear trapezoids and notice: one of the lines degenerates into a point, the role of the limiting function is played by the line

Area of ​​a curved trapezoid (slide 3)

Fix the left end of the interval A, and the right one X we will change, i.e., we move the right wall of the curvilinear trapezoid and get a changing figure. The area of ​​a variable curvilinear trapezoid bounded by the graph of the function is an antiderivative F for function f

And on the segment [ a; b] area of ​​a curvilinear trapezoid formed by the function f, is equal to the increment of the antiderivative of this function:

Exercise 1:

Integral

Consider a curvilinear trapezoid defined by the function f on the segment [ a; b]. Let's break this segment into several parts. The area of ​​the entire trapezoid will be divided into the sum of the areas of smaller curved trapezoids. ( slide 5). Each such trapezoid can be approximately considered a rectangle. The sum of the areas of these rectangles gives an approximate idea of ​​the entire area of ​​the curved trapezoid. The smaller we divide the segment [ a; b], the more accurately we calculate the area.

Let us write these arguments in the form of formulas.

Divide the segment [ a; b] into n parts by dots x 0 =a, x1,...,xn = b. Length k- th denote by xk = xk – xk-1. Let's make a sum

Geometrically, this sum represents the area of ​​the figure shaded in the figure ( sh.m.)

Sums of the form are called integral sums for the function f. (sh.m.)

Integral sums give an approximate value of the area. Exact value is obtained by passing to the limit. Let's imagine that we are refining the partition of the segment [ a; b] so that the lengths of all small segments tend to zero. Then the area of ​​the composed figure will approach the area of ​​the curved trapezoid. We can say that the area of ​​a curved trapezoid is equal to the limit of integral sums, Sc.t. (sh.m.) or integral, i.e.,

Definition:

Integral of a function f(x) from a before b called the limit of integral sums

= (sh.m.)

Newton-Leibniz formula.

We remember that the limit of integral sums is equal to the area of ​​a curvilinear trapezoid, which means we can write:

Sc.t. = (sh.m.)

On the other hand, the area of ​​a curved trapezoid is calculated using the formula

S k.t. (sh.m.)

Comparing these formulas, we get:

= (sh.m.)

This equality is called the Newton-Leibniz formula.

For ease of calculation, the formula is written as:

= = (sh.m.)

Example1 . Calculate the area of ​​the figure bounded by the lines: x + 2y – 4 = 0, y = 0, x = -3, and x = 2


Let's construct a figure (see figure) We construct a straight line x + 2y – 4 = 0 using two points A(4;0) and B(0;2). Expressing y through x, we get y = -0.5x + 2. Using formula (1), where f(x) = -0.5x + 2, a = -3, b = 2, we find

Let's find the point of intersection of the lines by solving the system of equations:

x = 2, y = 3; M(2; 3).

To calculate the required area, we divide the triangle AMC into two triangles AMN and NMC, since when x changes from A to N, the area is limited by a straight line, and when x changes from N to C - by a straight line


For triangle AMN we have: ; y = 0.5x + 2, i.e. f(x) = 0.5x + 2, a = - 4, b = 2.

For triangle NMC we have: y = - x + 5, i.e. f(x) = - x + 5, a = 2, b = 5.
