Linear Algebra, Numeircal and Complex Analysis (MA11004)

Department of Mathematics
Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur
Tutorial Sheet 8, Spring 2024

Topics: Lagrange’s interpolation formula, Trapezoidal rule and Simpson’s 13 rd rule for numer-
ical integrations, and their total error bounds.

1. Given that f (1) = 2, f (2) = 4 , f (3) = 8 , f (4) = 16 , f (7) = 128. Find the value of f (5)
using the Lagrange’s interpolation formula.

2. Using the Lagrange’s interpolation formula, express

3x2 + x + 1
x3 − 6x2 + 11x − 6
as the sum of partial fractions.

3. Using the Lagrange’s formula, prove that


 
1 1 1 1
y0 = (y1 + y−1 ) − (y3 − y1 ) − (y−1 − y−3 ) .

Note: yi = y(i) = f (i).

4. Compute the value of following integral


Z 1.4
(sin x − ln x + ex )dx
0.2

using trapezoidal rule with 6 equal subintervals.

5. A car laps a racetrack in 84 seconds. The speed of the car at each 6 seconds interval is
determined using a radar gun and is given from the beginning of the lap, in feet/second,
in the entries in the following table:

Time 0 6 12 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60 66 72 78 84
Speed 124 134 148 156 147 133 121 109 99 85 78 89 104 116 123

How long is the track?


Note: use trapezoidal formula

6. How big should the spacing h be so that the computation of


Z 1
ex dx
0

by trapezoidal rule will be correct to five decimal places.

7. Let f (x) = ax2 + bx + c be a given function, where a, b, c are constants. Then find
Rh 1
−h f (x) dx using Simpson’s 3 rd rule. Compare the above with the exact integral value.

8. Calculate the value of the integral
Z 5.2
ln x dx
4

using Simpson’s 13 rd rule with 6 equal subdivisions of the interval.

9. Determine the number of subintervals, n, required to approximate


Z 2

f (x) = dx,
0 x+4

with the total error |E| < 10−4 using

(a) Trapezoidal rule,


(b) Simpson’s 31 rd rule.

10. Evaluate the integral 0 x3x+1 dx using Simpson’s 1/3 rd rule (Taking h=0.25). Compare
the error with the exact value.
