Calculus Unit Plan
Overview Integral calculus is the study of the area under the curve. The connection between differential calculus and integral calculus is the fundamental theorem of calculus. This unit will help explain that connection and how to use it to solve problems.
Essential Questions What is the integral, how do I get it, and how is it used to solve problems?
How is the derivative related to the definite interval as found in the fundamental theorem of calculus?

MAFS.912.C.4.1: Use rectangle approximations to find approximate values of integrals. MAFS.912.C.4.2: Calculate the values of Riemann Sums over equal subdivisions using left, right, and midpoint evaluation points. MAFS.912.C.4.3: Interpret a definite integral as a limit of Riemann sums. MAFS.912.C.4.4: Interpret a definite integral of the rate of change of a quantity over an interval as the change of the quantity over the interval. That is, f'(x)dx = f(b) - f(a) (Fundamental Theorem of Calculus). MAFS.912.C.4.5: Use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to evaluate definite and indefinite integrals and to represent particular antiderivatives. Perform analytical and graphical analysis of functions so defined. MAFS.912.C.4.6: Use these properties of definite integrals: [f(x) + g(x)]dx = f(x)dx + g(x)dx k • f(x)dx = k f(x)dx f(x)dx = 0 f(x)dx = - f(x)dx f(x)dx + f(x)dx = f(x)dx If f(x) ≤ g(x) on [a, b], then f(x)dx ≤ g(x)dx MAFS.912.C.4.7: Use integration by substitution (or change of variable) to find values of integrals. MAFS.912.C.4.8: Use Riemann Sums, the Trapezoidal Rule, and technology to approximate definite integrals of functions represented algebraically, geometrically, and by tables of values. MAFS.912.C.5.1: Find specific antiderivatives using initial conditions, including finding velocity functions from acceleration functions, finding position functions from velocity functions, and solving applications MAFS.912.C.5.2: Solve separable differential equations, and use them in modeling. MAFS.912.C.5.4: Use slope fields to display a graphic representation of the solution to a differential equation, and locate particular solutions to the equation.
