Study Notes
Calculus Relationships
- The derivative and integral of a function are inversely related, with the derivative measuring the rate of change and the integral measuring the accumulation of change.
Evaluating Definite Integrals
- A common method for evaluating definite integrals is the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC).
Calculus Operations
- The fundamental operations of calculus are differentiation (finding the derivative) and integration (finding the integral).
Purpose of Integration
- The purpose of integration in mathematics is to find the accumulation of a quantity over a defined interval.
Definite Integrals and Area Under a Curve
- Definite integrals represent the area between a curve and the horizontal axis over a defined interval.
Indefinite Integrals
- Indefinite integrals are also known as antiderivatives.
Sign Convention in Integration
- The convention for the sign of areas above and below the horizontal axis in integration is: • Areas above the axis are positive. • Areas below the axis are negative.
