Study Notes
Integration
- The area under a curve can be found using definite integration:
- ∫[a, b] f(x) dx = area under the curve of f(x) from x = a to x = b
- The fundamental theorem of calculus states that differentiation and integration are inverse processes
- The area under the curve can be approximated using rectangles (Riemann sums) and the limit as the number of rectangles increases
Region Bounding
- To find the area between two curves, we need to find the region bounded by the curves
- The region bounded by two curves can be found by:
- Graphing the curves on the same coordinate plane
- Identifying the points of intersection (if any)
- Finding the area under each curve separately and subtracting the area of the lower curve from the area of the upper curve
Curve Intersection
- To find the points of intersection between two curves, we need to set the equations of the curves equal to each other and solve for x
- The x-values of the points of intersection can be used as the limits of integration to find the area between the curves
- The y-values of the points of intersection can be used to determine which curve is the upper curve and which curve is the lower curve
