Definite integrals

Area under a curve and the fundamental theorem of calculus.

A definite integral is the signed area between the curve and the axis on an interval. Find an antiderivative F, then compute F(b) − F(a): the fundamental theorem of calculus. The shaded region in the graph is the area being computed.

Integrate x^2 from 0 to 1

\int_{0}^{1} x^{2}\, dx

خطوة خطوة

  1. \int_{0}^{1} x^{2}\, dx

    First find an antiderivative F, then evaluate F(b) − F(a).

  2. \int x^{2}\, dx = \frac{x^{3}}{3}

    Power rule: ∫xⁿ dx = xⁿ⁺¹/(n+1) (n ≠ −1).

  3. F(1) - F(0) = \left(\frac{1}{3}\right) - \left(0\right)

    Fundamental theorem of calculus: plug in the limits.

  4. = \frac{1}{3}

    Simplify.

أسئلة يطرحها الناس

What is a derivative in one sentence?

The slope of the graph at a point, the rate at which the output is changing there. Speed is the derivative of position.

What is an integral in one sentence?

The accumulated total of a rate: the area under the curve. Distance travelled is the integral of speed.

Why are derivatives and integrals opposites?

That is the fundamental theorem of calculus: accumulating a rate and then measuring how fast the accumulation grows gets you back the rate. Integration undoes differentiation up to a constant.

When do I use substitution and when integration by parts?

Substitution when part of the integrand is the derivative of another part (u and du both present). Parts when the integrand is a product of two unrelated kinds of function, a polynomial times an exponential, log or trig function.
