Answer

$\lim\limits_{n \to {\infty}}\Sigma_{i=1}^{n}{\sqrt {4+\left(1+\frac{2i}{n}\right)^2}}\frac{2}{n}$

Work Step by Step

$f(x)$ = $\sqrt {4+x^{2}}$ $a$ = $1$, $b$ = $3$ and $Δx$ = $\frac{3-1}{n}$ = $\frac{2}{n}$ $x_i$ = $1+i$ $Δx$ = $\frac{2}{n}$, $x = 1+\frac{2i}{n}$ so $\int_1^3{\sqrt {4+x^{2}}}dx$ = $\lim\limits_{n \to {\infty}}\Sigma_{i=1}^{n}{\sqrt {4+\left(1+\frac{2i}{n}\right)^2}}\frac{2}{n}$
