(a) Use the trapezium rule to find an approximate value of the integral,

(the integral is from 1 to 2) ? dx/x^2'


by dividing the range of integration into five equal parts. Compare your result withthe exact answer.

(b) Use Newton's method to find an approximate solution of the equation 2 sin x = x^2 to three decimal places, starting from x = ?.

(a) Use Newton's method to find an approximate solution of the equation,

x=1/ (1 + x^2)

to three decimal places, starting from x=1

(b) Use the trapezium rule to find an approximate value of the integral,

(the integral is from 1 to 2) ? dx/ x+ 1

by dividing the range of integration into five equal parts. Compare your result with the exact answer.

These are fairly simple questions - your text-book should have similar example problems solved. If not, then use google, you'll find many sites with worked out examples.
