Step 1 
Remember that 
abf(x) dx =limnΔxi=1nf(a+iΔx) 
Where Δx=ban 
Step 2 
limni=1nπ4ntan(iπ4n) 
Comparing shows that
Δx=π4n 
a=0 
Δx=ban=π4nb=π4 
and f(x)=tanx 
Therefore, 
limni=1ntan(iπ4n)=0π4tanx dx  
We determine that 
This sum represent the area under the curve y=tanx and above x-axis in the interval x[0. π4] 
The sum represent the area of the blue region in the graph below:

Solution: 
Given: limni=1nπ4ntanπ4n 
=0π4tanx dx  
f(x)=tanx, x[0, π4]
