Theory Definite Integrals PDF

The document defines definite integrals and discusses their geometrical interpretation, fundamental theorem of calculus, and properties. It provides examples of evaluating definite integrals using properties such as: 1) Changing the variable of integration is allowed and yields the same result. 2) Integrals involving absolute value or modulus functions change at points where the argument is zero. 3) Integrals can be written as sums involving integrals over subintervals defined by points where a function changes. 4) Substitution techniques can be used to evaluate integrals involving algebraic or trigonometric functions.

Theory - Definite Integrals


DEFINITION
Definite integral, which is used in various field of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. Symbolically
b

f (x )dx is the integration of f(x) w.r.t. x with x = a as lower limit and x = b as upper limit.

GEOMETRICAL INTERPRETATION OF DEFINITE INTEGRAL

Let f(x) be a function defined on a closed interval [a, b]. Then f ( x )dx represents the algebraic

sum of the areas of the region bounded by the curve y = f(x), xaxis and the lines x = a, x = b. Here
algebraic sum means that area which is above the xaxis will be added in this sum with + sign and
area which is below the xaxis will be added in this sum with sign. So value of the definite integral
may be positive, zero or negative.

Solution:

y = 2x 3 is a straight line, which lie below the xaxis in 1, and above in ,

DEFINITE INTEGRAL AS THE LIMIT OF A SUM


b

Consider f ( x )dx , for simplicity, we can take f ( x ) 0 x [a , b] . Then f ( x )dx represents

the area bounded by the curve y = f(x) xaxis and the lines x = a and x = b i.e. the above shaded
area. Now this area can be divided into n parts.

Area of the rth part can be assumed a rectangle, with width equal to
