Definite Integral
Let f be a function on a closed interval [a,b], then
the definite integral of f from a to b is denoted by:

1.5 Odd and Even Functions
Even Functions
A function that remains unchanged when x is replaced
by -x is called an even functions.
f(−x)=f(x)
Geometrically, the curve of an even function is
symmetric with respect to the y-axis.
Examples:
Odd Functions
A function such that
f(−x)=−f(x)
is called an odd function. Geometrically , the curve of an
odd function is symmetric with respect to the origin.

1.6 Change of Limits
Change of Limits
When evaluating an integral using u-substitution, an
expression involving the original variable is replaced by a
new variable. The end result is a simpler integral.
When we use u-substitution to evaluate a definite integral,
we must change each part of the integral to use the new
variable (usually u) instead of the old variable (often x).
There are three pieces that must be changed:
•The function itself (change an expression
involving x into u)
•The differential (change dx into an expression
involving du)
•The bounds (change the bounds of integration from
values for x into values for u
