7.1 Overview
d
7.1.1 Let F (x) = f (x). Then, we write f x dx = F (x) + C. These integrals are
dx
called indefinite integrals or general integrals, C is called a constant of integration.
All these integrals differ by a constant.
7.1.2 If two functions differ by a constant, they have the same derivative.
(i) The process of differentiation and integration are inverse of each other,
d
i.e., f x dx f
and f ' x dx f x C , where C is any
x
dx
arbitrary constant.
(ii) Two indefinite integrals with the same derivative lead to the same family
of curves and so they are equivalent. So if f and g are two functions such
that
d d
f x dx g(x) dx , then f x dx and g x dx are equivalent.
the functions i.e., f x g x dx = f + g x
x dx dx .
dx dx
(iii) The integral of the sum of two functions equals the sum of the integrals of
a n n
144 MATHEMATICS
(iv) A constant factor may be written either before or after the integral sign, i.e.,
x dx
There are some methods or techniques for finding the integral where we can not
directly select the antiderivative of function f by reducing them into standard
forms. Some of these methods are based on
1. Integration by substitution
2. Integration using partial fractions
3. Integration by parts.
The definite integral is denoted by f x dx , where a is the lower limit of the integral
a
and b is the upper limit of the integral. The definite integral is evaluated in the following
two ways:
(ii)
f x dx = F(b) – F(a), if F is an antiderivative of f (x).
a
The definite integral f x dx is the area bounded by the curve y = f (x), the ordi-
