Definite Integrals
The definite integrals are the integrals which are bounded by the limits. The antiderivative p(x) of a continuous function f(x) on the interval [a, b] is called a definite integral. It is denoted by [Tex]\int\limits^b_a [/Tex]f(x)dx and its value equals to p(b) – p(a) where p(b) is the antiderivative at x = b and p(a) is the antiderivative at x = a. The interval [a, b] is called interval of integration. The a and b are called the limits of integration where a is called the lower limit and b is called the upper limit of the integration. The definite integral does not require any constant integration.
Integral Calculus
Integral Calculus is the branch of calculus that deals with topics related to integration. Integrals are major components of calculus and are very useful in solving various problems based on real life. Some of such problems are the Basel problem, the problem of squaring the circle, the Gaussian integral, etc. Integral Calculus is directly related to differential calculus.
This article is a brief introduction to Integral Calculus, including topics such as fundamental theorems of integral calculus, types of integral, and integral calculus formulas, definite and indefinite integrals with their properties, applications of integral calculus, and their examples.
