Introduction to Integration
Definition: Integration is the process of finding Purpose: To calculate areas under curves,
the integral of a function, which is the inverse accumulated quantities, and solve differential
operation of differentiation. equations.
Indefinite Integrals
∫ xn dx = (xn+1)/(n+1) + C, n ≠ -1
∫ ex dx = ex + C
∫ sin(x) dx = -cos(x) + C
∫ cos(x) dx = sin(x) + C

Substitution: Simplify By Parts: Apply the Partial Fractions: Trigonometric Integrals:
the integrand by formula ∫ u dv = uv - ∫ v Decompose rational Integrate functions
changing variables. du. functions into simpler involving trigonometric
fractions. functions using
identities.
Applications of Integration
Area Under Curves: ∫[a to b] f(x) dx gives the area under f(x)
from a to b.
∫ (3x^2 - 4x + 1) dx
∫ e^(2x) dx
∫[1 to 3] (x^2 + 2x + 1) dx
∫ sec^2(x) dx
