\Consider the function concave up on interval is
.
Consider the function concave down on interval is
.
The number of subintervals are .
Graph the function: on

\Simposons rule.
\Since the two functions are quadratic functions Simpsons rule is more accurate approximations of and
.
The Trapezoidal Rule approximates using first degree polynomials(linear).
