Similar to limit evaluation, the substitution of complex expressions involving $x$ and $dx$ with $u$ and $du$ is generally used to work with the chain rule.
|
||||
$$
|
||||
u=g(x) \\
|
||||
\int f(g(s))\cdot g´(x)\cdot dx = \int f(u)\cdot du
|
||||
\int f(g(x))\cdot g´(x)\cdot dx = \int f(u)\cdot du

### Definite integration
|
||||
|
||||
To find a numerical value of the area under the curve in the bounded interval $[a,b]$, the **definite** integral can be taken.
|
||||
$$\int^b_a f(x)dx$$
|
||||
|
||||
$a$ and $b$ are known as the lower and upper **limits of integration**, respectively.

|
||||
|
||||
Regions **under** the x-axis are treated as negative while those above are positive, cancelling each other out, so the definite integral finds something like the net area over an interval.
|
||||
|
||||
If $f(x)$ is continuous at $[a,b]$ and $F(x)$ is the anti-derivative, the definite integral is equal to:
|
||||
$$\int^b_a f(x)dx=F(x)\biggr]^b_a=F(b)-F(a)$$
|
||||
|
||||
As such, it can be evaluated manually by integrating the function and subtracting the two anti-derivatives.
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
If $u$-substitution is used, the limits of integration must be adjusted accordingly.
|
||||
|
||||
To find the total **area** enclosed between the x-axis, $x=a$, $x=b$, and $f(x)$, the function needs to be split at each x-intercept and the absolute value of each definite integral in those intervals summed.
|
||||
$$A=\int^b_a \big|f(x)\big| dx$$
|
||||
|
||||
### Properties of definite integration
|
||||
|
||||
The following rules only apply while $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ are continuous in the interval $[a,b]$ and $c$ is a constant.
|
||||
|
||||
$$
|
||||
\begin{align*}
|
||||
&\int^a_a f(x)dx&=&&0 \\
|
||||
&\int^b_a c\cdot dx&=&&c(b-a) \\
|
||||
&\int^b_a f(x)dx&=&&-\int^b_a f(x)dx \\
|
||||
&\int^c_a f(x)dx&=&&\int^b_a f(x)dx + \int^c_b f(x)dx
|
||||
\end{align*}
|
||||
$$
|
||||
|
||||
The **constant multiple** and **sum** rules still apply.
