This example illustrates the concept of definite integral and the calculation of Riemann sum. Key mathematical concepts include definite integral and Riemann sum. Using GeoGebra commands such as Sequence, Translate, LeftSum, etc., the process of interval division and the accumulation of rectangular areas can be dynamically demonstrated. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning calculus concepts.
