Study Notes
Interpreting Definite Integrals
- Definite integrals can be interpreted as the signed area of the region in the plane bounded by the graph of a given function between two points in the real line.
Computing Integrals
- The process of computing an integral is called integration.
Integrals and Functions
- Integrals refer to the antiderivative of a function, which is a function that can be differentiated to obtain the original function.
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
- The fundamental theorem of calculus relates definite integration to differential calculus, stating that differentiation and integration are inverse processes.
Areas in the Plane
- Areas above the horizontal axis in the plane represent positive values conventionally.
- Areas below the horizontal axis in the plane represent negative values conventionally.
