This example demonstrates how to calculate the area between two curves. It involves core mathematical concepts such as functions and integrals. Using GeoGebra commands like Point, Sequence, and Sum, specific graphics can be constructed. Suitable for high school and above students or teachers.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Point(xAxis) → B
  2. Point(xAxis) → A
  3. Sequence((i, f(i)), i, a, b, h) → L1
  4. Sequence((i, g(i)), i, a, b, h) → L2
  5. Sequence(Polygon[Element[L1, i], (x(Element[L1, i + 1]), y(Element[L1, i])), (x(Element[L2, i + 1]), y(Element[L2, i])), Element[L2, i]], i, 1, n) → LeftP
  6. Sum(LeftP) → LeftSum
