Key Concepts & Definitions

  • Integral: A mathematical operation that calculates the accumulation of quantities, often represented as the area under a curve of a function ( f(x) ). It essentially sums infinitesimal parts to find total quantity.

  • Indefinite Integral: The antiderivative of a function ( f(x) ), denoted as (\int f(x) , dx), representing a family of functions ( F(x) ) such that ( F'(x) = f(x) ). It includes a constant of integration ( C ).

  • Definite Integral: A numerical value representing the accumulated quantity of ( f(x) ) between limits ( a ) and ( b ), expressed as (\int_a^b f(x) , dx). It equals ( F(b) - F(a) ), where ( F ) is an antiderivative of ( f ).

  • Area Under the Curve: The region bounded by the graph of ( f(x) ), the x-axis, and the vertical lines ( x=a ) and ( x=b ). Calculated using a definite integral.

  • Fundamental Theorem of Calculus: Connects differentiation and integration, stating that if ( F ) is an antiderivative of ( f ), then (\int_a^b f(x) , dx = F(b) - F(a)). Also, the derivative of the integral function ( F(x) = \int_a^x f(t) , dt ) is ( f(x) ).
