Study Notes
Calculus Fundamentals
- The continuous analog of a sum used to calculate areas, volumes, and their generalizations in mathematics is the integral.
Operations of Calculus
- Integration is one of the two fundamental operations of calculus, alongside differentiation.
Definite Integrals
- Definite integrals represent the area between a curve of a given function and the x-axis, within a specified interval (bounded by two points on the real line).
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
- The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus relates definite integration to differentiation, providing a method to compute the definite integral of a function when its antiderivative is known.
Antiderivatives and Integrals
- Integrals also refer to antiderivatives, which are functions whose derivative is the given function.
