Suppose we are given two functions <math>y_1=f(x)</math> and <math>y_2=g(x)</math> and we want to find the area between them on the interval <math>[a,b]</math> . Also assume that <math>f(x)\ge g(x)</math> for all <math>x</math> on the interval <math>[a,b]</math> . Begin by partitioning the interval <math>[a,b]</math> into <math>n</math> equal subintervals each having a length of <math>\Delta x=\frac{b-a}{n}</math> . Next choose any point in each subinterval, <math>x_i^*</math> . Now we can 'create' rectangles on each interval. At the point <math>x_i*</math> , the height of each rectangle is <math>f(x_i^*)-g(x_i^*)</math> and the width is <math>\Delta x</math> .

which gives the exact area. Recalling the definition of the definite integral we notice that

This formula of finding the area between two curves is sometimes known as applying integration with respect to the ''x''-axis since the rectangles used to approximate the area have their bases lying parallel to the ''x''-axis. It will be most useful when the two functions are of the form <math>y_1=f(x)</math> and <math>y_2=g(x)</math> . Sometimes however, one may find it simpler to integrate with respect to the ''y''-axis. This occurs when integrating with respect to the ''x''-axis would result in more than one integral to be evaluated. These functions take the form <math>x_1=f(y)</math> and <math>x_2=g(y)</math> on the interval <math>[c,d]</math> . Note that <math>[c,d]</math> are values of <math>y</math> . The derivation of this case is completely identical. Similar to before, we will assume that <math>f(y)\ge g(y)</math> for all <math>y</math> on <math>[c,d]</math> . Now, as before we can divide the interval into <math>n</math> subintervals and create rectangles to approximate the area between <math>f(y)</math> and <math>g(y)</math> . It may be useful to picture each rectangle having their 'width', <math>\Delta y</math> , parallel to the ''y''-axis and 'height', <math>f(y_i^*)-g(y_i^*)</math> at the point <math>y_i^*</math>, parallel to the ''x''-axis. Following from the work above we may reason that an ''approximation'' of the area, <math>A</math> , between the two curves is

:<math>A:=\sum_{i=1}^n \Big[f(y_i^*)-g(y_i^*)\Big]\Delta y</math> .

Basic Properties of Indefinite Integrals

Constant Rule for indefinite integrals

Indefinite integrals of Polynomials

Say we are given a function of the form, , and would like to determine the antiderivative of . Considering that

we have the following rule for indefinite integrals:

Power rule for indefinite integrals

for all

Integral of the Inverse function

To integrate , we should first remember

Therefore, since is the derivative of we can conclude that

Note that the polynomial integration rule does not apply when the exponent is . This technique of integration must be used instead. Since the argument of the natural logarithm function must be positive (on the real line), the absolute value signs are added around its argument to ensure that the argument is positive.

Integral of the Exponential function

Since

we see that is its own antiderivative. This allows us to find the integral of an exponential function:

Integral of Sine and Cosine

Recall that

So Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \sin(x)} is an antiderivative of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \cos(x)} and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle -\cos(x)} is an antiderivative of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \sin(x)} .

Example

Suppose we want to integrate the function Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle f(x)=x^4+1+2\sin(x)} .

Recognizing Derivatives and Reversing Derivative Rules

If we recognize a function Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle g(x)} as being the derivative of a function Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle f(x)} , then we can easily express the antiderivative of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle g(x)}  :

Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \int g(x)dx=f(x)+C}

For example, since

Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}\sin(x)=\cos(x)}

we can conclude that

Similarly, since we know Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle e^x} is its own derivative,

The power rule for derivatives can be reversed to give us a way to handle integrals of powers of Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x} . Since

we can conclude that

or, a little more usefully,

Finding Area or Net Change Between Curves

Finding the area between two curves, usually given by two explicit functions, is often useful in calculus.

In general the rule for finding the area between two curves is

Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle A=A_{\rm top}-A_{\rm bottom}} or

Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle A=\int\limits_a^b \bigl(f(x)-g(x)\bigr)dx}

This is true whether the functions are in the first quadrant or not.

Area between two curves

Suppose we are given two functions Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle y_1=f(x)} and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle y_2=g(x)} and we want to find the area between them on the interval .

Thus the area of each rectangle is Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \bigl[f(x_i^*)-g(x_i^*)\bigr]\Delta x} . An approximation of the area, Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle A} , between the two curves is

Now we take the limit as Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle n} approaches infinity and get

which is nothing more than a definite integral, so
