Application to Area and Volume
Area
The area enclosed by a curve, the x-axis and the lines x=a, x=b is given by
In a similar way the area enclosed by a curve, the y-axis and the lines y=a, y=b is given by
∫
Example
Find the area bounded by the x-axis, curve y=ex and the lines x=0, x=2
Area Between Curves
