Definite Integration - Notes, Concept and All Important Formula

DEFINITE INTEGRATION

    1. (a) The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Part 1:

    If \(\mathrm{f}\) is continuous on \([\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}]\), then the function \(\mathrm{g}\) defined by

    \(g(x)=\displaystyle \int_{a}^{x} f(t) d t,\)  \(  a \leq x \leq b\) is continuous on \([\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}]\) and differentiable on \((\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b})\), and \(g^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})=\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})\).

    (b) The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Part 2:

    If f is continuous on \([a, b]\), then \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=F(b)-F(a)\) where \(F\) is any antiderivative of \(\mathrm{f}\), that is, a function such that \(\mathrm{F}^{\prime}=\mathrm{f}.\)

    Note : If \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=0 \Rightarrow\) then the equation \(f(x)=0\) has atleast one root lying in \((a, b)\) provided \(f\) is a continuous function in \((a, b)\).




    2. Representation of Definite Integration

     A definite integral is denoted by \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b}  f(x) d x\) which represents the algebraic area bounded by the curve \(y=\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})\), the ordinates \(\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{a}\), \(\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{b}\) and the \(\mathrm{x}\) -axis. ex. \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{2 \pi} \sin \mathrm{x} \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}=0\)



    3. PROPERTIES OF DEFINITE INTEGRAL:

    (a) \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(t) d t \Rightarrow \displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x\) does not depend upon \(x\). It is a numerical quantity.

    (b) \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=-\displaystyle \int_{b}^{a} f(x) d x\)

    (c) \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=\displaystyle \int_{a}^{c} f(x) d x+\displaystyle \int_{c}^{b} f(x) d x\), where \(c\) may lie inside or outside the interval \([\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}]\). This property to be used when \(\mathrm{f}\) is piecewise continuous in \((a, b)\).

    (d) \(\displaystyle \int_{-a}^{a} f(x) d x\)\(=\displaystyle \int_{0}^{a}[f(x)+f(-x)] d x\)\(=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0  \,\, & \text { if } f(x) \text { is an odd function } \\ 2 \displaystyle \int_{0}^{a} f(x) \,\, d x  & \text { if } f(x) \text { is an even function }\end{array}\right.\)

    (e) \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x=\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(a+b-x) d x\), In particular \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{a} f(x) d x=\displaystyle \int_{0}^{a} f(a-x) d x\)

    (f) \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{2 a} f(x) d x\)\(=\displaystyle \int_{0}^{a} f(x) d x+\displaystyle \int_{0}^{a} f(2 a-x) d x\)\(=\left[\begin{array}{l}2 \displaystyle \int_{0}^{a}(x) d x  & \text { if } f(2 a-x)=f(x) \\ 0  & \text { if } f(2 a-x)=-f(x)\end{array}\right.\)

    (g) \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{\mathrm{nT}} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}=\mathrm{n} \displaystyle \int_{0}^{\mathrm{T}} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{dx}, \quad(\mathrm{n} \in \mathrm{I}) ;\) where '\(\mathrm{T}\)' is the period of the function i.e. \(f(T+x)=f(x)\)

    Note that : \(\displaystyle \int_{x}^{T+x} f(t)\) dt will be independent of \(x\) and equal to \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{T} f(t)\) dt

    (h) \(\displaystyle \int_{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{nT}}^{\mathrm{b}+\mathrm{nT}} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}=\displaystyle \int_{\mathrm{a}}^{\mathrm{b}} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{dx}\) where \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})\) is periodic with period \(\mathrm{T} \) & \(\mathrm{n} \in \mathrm{I}\).

    (i) \(\displaystyle \int_{m a}^{n a} f(x) d x=(n-m) \displaystyle \int_{0}^{a} f(x) d x,(n, m \in D)\) if \(f(x)\) is periodic with period'a'.




    4. WALLI'S FORMULA :

    (a) \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \sin ^{n} x d x\)\(=\displaystyle \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \cos ^{n} x d x\)\(=\dfrac{(n-1)(n-3) \ldots .(1 \text { or } 2)}{n(n-2) \ldots . .(1 \text { or } 2)} K\)

    where \(K=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}\pi / 2 & \text { if } n \text { is even } \\ 1 & \text { if } n \text { is odd }\end{array}\right.\)

    (b) \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \sin ^{n} x \cdot \cos ^{m} x d x\)

    \(\scriptsize{=\dfrac{[(\mathrm{n}-1)(\mathrm{n}-3)(\mathrm{n}-5) \ldots 1 \text { or } 2][(\mathrm{m}-1)(\mathrm{m}-3) \ldots .1 \text { or } 2]}{(\mathrm{m}+\mathrm{n})(\mathrm{m}+\mathrm{n}-2)(\mathrm{m}+\mathrm{n}-4) \ldots .1 \text { or } 2} \mathrm{~K}}\)

    Where \(\mathrm{K}=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}\dfrac{\pi}{2} & \text { if both } \mathrm{m} \text { and } \mathrm{n} \text { are even }(\mathrm{m}, \mathrm{n} \in \mathrm{N}) \\ 1 & \text { otherwise }\end{array}\right.\)




    5. DERIVATIVE OF ANTIDERIVATIVE FUNCTION (NewtonLeibnitz Formula)

    If \(\mathrm{h}(\mathrm{x}) \) & \(\mathrm{~g}(\mathrm{x})\) are differentiable functions of \(\mathrm{x}\) then

    \(\dfrac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d} \mathrm{x}} \displaystyle \int_{\mathrm{g}(\mathrm{x})}^{\mathrm{h}(\mathrm{x})} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{t}) \mathrm{d} \mathrm{t}=\mathrm{f}[\mathrm{h}(\mathrm{x})] \cdot h^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})-\mathrm{f}[\mathrm{g}(\mathrm{x})] \cdot \cdot \mathrm{g}^{\prime}(\mathrm{x})\)




    6. DEFINITE INTEGRAL AS LIMIT OF A SUM 

    \(\begin{aligned} \displaystyle \int_{a}^{b}(x) d x &= \displaystyle \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}h[f(a)+f(a+h)+f(a+2 h)+\ldots \\ & . .+f(a+\overline{n-1} h)] \\ &=\displaystyle \lim_{h \rightarrow \infty} h\sum_{r=0}^{n-1} f(a+r h), \text { where } b-a=n h \end{aligned}\)

    If \(a=0 \) & \(b=1\) then, \(\displaystyle \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} f(r h)=\displaystyle \int_{0}^{1} f(x) d x ;\) where \(n h=1\)

    OR \( \displaystyle \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}\left(\dfrac{1}{n}\right) \sum_{r=1}^{n-1} f\left(\dfrac{r}{n}\right)=\displaystyle \int_{0}^{1} f(x) d x\)




    7. ESTIMATION OF DEFINTE INTEGRAL 

    (a) If \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})\) is continuous in \([\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}]\) and it's range in this interval is \([\mathrm{m},\) M], then \(m(b-a) \leq \displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x \leq M(b-a)\)

    (b) If \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \leq \phi(\mathrm{x})\) for \(\mathrm{a} \leq \mathrm{x} \leq \mathrm{b}\) then \(\displaystyle \int_{\mathrm{a}}^{\mathrm{b}} \mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{dx} \leq \displaystyle \int_{\mathrm{a}}^{\mathrm{b}} \phi(\mathrm{x}) \mathrm{dx}\)

    (c) \(\left|\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x\right| \leq \displaystyle \int_{a}^{b}|f(x)| d x\).

    (d) If \(f(x) \geq 0\) on the interval \([a, b]\), then \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x \geq 0\).

    (e) \(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{x})\) and \(\mathrm{g}(\mathrm{x})\) are two continuous function on \([\mathrm{a}, \mathrm{b}]\) then \(\left|\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f(x) g(x) d x\right| \leq \sqrt{\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} f^{2}(x) d x \displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} g^{2}(x) d x}\)




    8. SOME STANDARD RESULTS :

    (a) \(\displaystyle \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \log \sin x d x=-\dfrac{\pi}{2} \log 2=\displaystyle \int_{0}^{\pi / 2} \log \cos x d x\)

    (b) \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b}\{x\} d x=\dfrac{b-a}{2} ; a, b \in I\)

    (c) \(\displaystyle \int_{a}^{b} \dfrac{|x|}{x} d x=|b|-|a|\).

    Complex Number - Notes, Concept and All Important Formula

    COMPLEX NUMBER 1. DEFINITION : Complex numbers are defined as expressions of the form \(a + ib\) where \(a, b \in R \quad \& i=\sqrt{-1}\) . It is denoted by \(z\) i.e. \(z=a+i b\) . 'a' is called real part of \(z(a=R e z)\) and ' \(b\) ' is called imaginary part of \(z(b=\operatorname{Im} z)\) Note : (i) The set \(R\) of real numbers is a proper subset of the Complex Numbers. Hence the Complex Number system is \(N \subset W \subset I \subset Q \subset R \subset C\) (ii) Zero is both purely real as well as purely imaginary but not imaginary. (iii) \(i =\sqrt{-1}\) is called the imaginary unit. Also \(i ^{2}=-1 ;\, i ^{3}=- i\) ; \(i ^{4}=1\) etc. (iv) \(\sqrt{a} \sqrt{b}=\sqrt{a b}\) only if atleast one of a or \(b\) is non-negative.

    DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION 1. DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION: An equation that involves independent and dependent variables and the derivatives of the dependent variables is called a DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION. All Chapter Notes, Concept and Important Formula 2. SOLUTION (PRIMITIVE) OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION : Finding the unknown function which satisfies given differential equation is called SOLVING OR INTEGRATING the differential equation. The solution of the differential equation is also called its PRIMITIVE, because the differential equation can be regarded as a relation derived from it. 3. ORDER OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION: The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest order differential coefficient occurring in it. 4. DEGREE OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION: The degree of a differential equation which can be written as a polynomial in the derivatives, is the degree of the derivative of the highest order occurring in it, after it has been expressed in a form free from radicals & fracti...
