DEFINITE INTEGRATION
β€’ Definite integration - allows us to calculate the area under a function/curve (area between x-axis
and curve)
β€’ We use the definite integral to find the area below a function/curve

β€’ a is the lower limit of integration and b is the upper limit of integration
𝑏

β€’ ‫ π‘₯𝑑 )π‘₯(𝑓 π‘ŽΧ¬β€¬then means the definite integral of 𝑓(π‘₯) between limits a and b
β€’ Note that with definite integration, the arbitrary constant falls away

FINDING A DEFINITE INTEGRAL
