This free estimating with finite sums worksheet helps AP Calculus AB students approximate area, distance and total change using rectangles. The 12-page printable PDF covers distance as area, estimating from velocity tables, and computing LRAM, RRAM and MRAM estimates.
Students also see how estimates improve as n increases, decide whether an estimate is too high or too low, find upper and lower bounds, and estimate the volume of a sphere using cylinders. An AP-style problem with unequal subintervals, mixed review, a challenge problem and a graphing challenge make it ideal for Unit 6 classwork, homework or AP exam review.
