Your goal here is to explore the concept of one of the major ideas in our next unit, and truly the second major branch of Calculus!!! Be creative and thorough as you as you experiment with these new ideas!

Adjust the sliders and see if you can determine what is being measured by each one.

Slide the "n=" slider and determine the connection between the the values calculated and the "n" value.

See if you can determine what the difference is between the measurements and think about how you might do them by hand.

Play with the sliders and see if you can ever get all of the measurements to be equal.

Adjust the function. Do you patterns/conclusions still hold with a new function?
