Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

What is the fundamental theorem of


calculus?

The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus


states that integration is the inverse
process of di"erentiation
This form of the Theorem relates to
Indefinite Integration
An alternative version of the
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
involves Definite Integration

What is “+c” (plus c)?


When di"erentiating y, constant terms
‘disappear’

for constants y = c,

graphs of constants are horizontal

lines and so have gradient of 0

Integrating , to get y, cannot

determine the constant


To acknowledge this constant, “+ c”
is used
c is called the constant of
integration

Notation

is the sign for integration

If it has more than one term the function


to be integrated (called the integrand)
should be in brackets
“Integrate” -– “all of (…)” -– “with
respect to x”
dx means integrate with respect to x, any
other letter is treated like a number (ie like
a constant)
