Integral Calculus Integral Calculus 10 This unit is designed to introduce the learners to the basic concepts associated with Integral Calculus. Integral calculus can be classified and discussed into two threads. One is Indefinite Integral and the other one is Definite Integral . The learners will learn about indefinite integral, methods of integration, definite integral and application of integral calculus in business and economics. School of Business Blank Page Unit-10 Page-228 Bangladesh Open University Lesson-1: Indefinite Integral After completing this lesson, you should be able to: Describe the concept of integration; Determine the indefinite integral of a given function. Introduction The process of differentiation is used for finding derivatives and differentials of functions. On the other hand, the process of integration is used (i) for finding the limit of the sum of an infinite number of Reversing the process infinitesimals that are in the differential form f ′()x dx (ii) for finding of differentiation and finding the original functions whose derivatives or differentials are given, i.e., for finding function from the anti-derivatives. Thus, reversing the process of differentiation and derivative is called finding the original function from the derivative is called integration or integration. anti-differentiation. The integral calculus is used to find the areas, probabilities and to solve equations involving derivatives. Integration is also used to determine a function whose rate of change is known. In integration whether the object be summation or anti-differentiation, the sign ∫, an elongated S, the first letter of the word ‘sum’ is most generally used to indicate the process of the summation or integration. Therefore, is read the integral of f (x) with respect to x. ∫ f ()x dx ∫ f() x dx is read the integral of f (x) with Again, integration is defined as the inverse process of differentiation. respect to x. d Thus if g()x = f ()x dx then ∫ f ()x dx = g()x + c where c is called the constant of integration. Of course c could have any value and thus integral of a function is not unique! But we could say one thing here that any two integrals of the same function differ by a constant. Since c could also have the value zero, g()x is one of the values of ∫ f ()x dx . As c is unknown and indefinite, hence it is also referred to as Indefinite Integral. Some Properties of Integration The following two rules are useful in reducing differentiable expressions to standard forms. (i) The integral of any algebraic sum of differential expression equals the algebraic sum of the integrals of these expressions taken separately. i.e. ∫[ f ()x ± g(x)]dx = ∫ f ()x dx ± ∫ g()x dx (ii) A constant multiplicative term may be written either before or after the integral sign. i.e. ∫ cf ()x dx = c∫ f ()x dx ; where c is a constant.

Introduction In comparing integral and differential calculus, most of the mathematicians would agree that the integration of functions is a more complicated process than the differentiation of functions. Functions can be differentiated through application of a number of relatively straightforward rules. This is not true in determining the integrals of functions. Integration is much less straightforward and often requires considerable ingenuity. Certain functions can be integrated quite simply by applying rules of Certain functions can be integrated quite integration. A natural question is that what happens when rules of simply by applying integration cannot be applied directly. Such functions require more rules of integration. complicated techniques. This lesson discusses four techniques that can be employed when the other rules do not apply and when the structure of the integrand is of an appropriate form. In general, experience is the best guide for suggesting the quickest and simplest method for integrating any given function. Methods of Integration The following are the four principal methods of integration: (i) Integration by substitution; (ii) Integration by parts; (iii) Integration by successive reductions; (iv) Integration by partial fraction. Integration by Substitution Substituting a new Substituting a new suitable variable for the given independent variable suitable variable for and integrating with respect to the substituted variable can often facilitate the given independent Integration. Experience is the best guide as to what substitution is likely variable and integra- to transform the given expression into another that is more readily ting with respect to the substituted vari- integrable.

    ANTIDERIVATIVES Definition: reverse operation of finding a derivative Notice that F is called AN antiderivative and not THE antiderivative. This is easily understood by looking at the example above. Some antiderivatives of 푓 푥 = 4푥3 are 퐹 푥 = 푥4, 퐹 푥 = 푥4 + 2, 퐹 푥 = 푥4 − 52 Because in each case 푑 퐹(푥) = 4푥3 푑푥 Theorem 1: If a function has more than one antiderivative, then the antiderivatives differ by a constant. • The graphs of antiderivatives are vertical translations of each other. • For example: 푓(푥) = 2푥 Find several functions that are the antiderivatives for 푓(푥) Answer: 푥2, 푥2 + 1, 푥2 + 3, 푥2 − 2, 푥2 + 푐 (푐 푖푠 푎푛푦 푟푒푎푙 푛푢푚푏푒푟) INDEFINITE INTEGRALS Let f (x) be a function. The family of all functions that are antiderivatives of f (x) is called the indefinite integral and has the symbol f (x) dx The symbol is called an integral sign, The function 푓 (푥) is called the integrand.

  • Antiderivatives Math 121 Calculus II D Joyce, Spring 2013
    Antiderivatives Math 121 Calculus II D Joyce, Spring 2013 Antiderivatives and the constant of integration. We'll start out this semester talking about antiderivatives. If the derivative of a function F isf, that is, F 0 = f, then we say F is an antiderivative of f. Of course, antiderivatives are important in solving problems when you know a derivative but not the function, but we'll soon see that lots of questions involving areas, volumes, and other things also come down to finding antiderivatives. That connection we'll see soon when we study the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC). For now, we'll just stick to the basic concept of antiderivatives. We can find antiderivatives of polynomials pretty easily. Suppose that we want to find an antiderivative F (x) of the polynomial f(x) = 4x3 + 5x2 − 3x + 8: We can find one by finding an antiderivative of each term and adding the results together. Since the derivative of x4 is 4x3, therefore an antiderivative of 4x3 is x4. It's not much harder to find an antiderivative of 5x2. Since the derivative of x3 is 3x2, an antiderivative of 5x2 is 5 3 3 x . Continue on and soon you see that an antiderivative of f(x) is 4 5 3 3 2 F (x) = x + 3 x − 2 x + 8x: There are, however, other antiderivatives of f(x). Since the derivative of a constant is 0, 4 5 3 3 2 we can add any constant to F (x) to find another antiderivative. Thus, x + 3 x − 2 x +8x+7 4 5 3 3 2 is another antiderivative of f(x).
