Definite integration

Definition
 definite integration gives the area under the curve
 If f(x) be a continuous function in [a,b] and ∫ f ( x ) dx=F ( x )+ c therefore,
b

∫ f ( x ) dx=F ( b ) −F ( a ) where a and b are lower and upper limits of integration


a
 Note: Always have that function which is continuous in [a,b]

Example problem:

1. ∫ 1+ x

2. ∫ ln x dx

3. ∫ 1+21s ¿ 2 x dx

Answer key:

1. −1

2. ln 4−1
3. Hint: form cot(x) instead of tan(x)

Important points
 Area above x-axis is +ve+
 Area below x-axis is –ve
 If this phrase “area bounded by x-axis and the curve” is used in the problem then take all the
areas +ve
b
 If f(x) is continuous in [a,b] and ∫ f ( x ) dx=0 then there at least one point c for which f(c) =
a
0 where a < c < b

Newton -Leibniz theorem:


This formula helps us to find differentiation of integration:
h (x)

Differentiation of ∫ f ( x ) dx =f ( h ( x ) ) h' ( x )−f ( g ( x )) g '( x )


g (x)

Summation to integration conservation:


n 1
r 1
lim ∑ f ( ) =∫ f ( x ) dx
