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

    Function (Mathematics)- Notes, Concept and All Important Formula

    FUNCTION 1. DEFINITION : If to every value (considered as real unless other-wise stated) of a variable \(\mathrm{x}\) , which belongs to a set \(\mathrm{A}\) , there corresponds one and only one finite value of the quantity \(y\) which belong to set \(B\) , then \(y\) is said to be a function of \(x\) and written as \(f: A \rightarrow B, y=f(x), x\) is called argument or independent variable and \(y\) is called dependent variable. Pictorially: \( \underset{\text { input }}{\stackrel{\mathrm{x}}{\longrightarrow}}\boxed{\mathrm{f}}\,\,  \underset{\text { output }}{\stackrel{\mathrm{f(x)=y}}{\longrightarrow}}\) \(y\) is called the image of \(x\) and \(x\) is the pre-image of \(y\) , under mapping \(\mathrm{f}\) .  Every function \(\mathrm{f}: \mathrm{A} \rightarrow \mathrm{B}\) satisfies the following conditions. (i) \(f \subset A \times B\) (ii) \(\forall \,\,  a \in A \,\, \exists\,\, b \in B\) such that \((a, b) \in f\) and (iii) If \((a, b) \in f \) &...

    What are Function and how its work on Calculus?

    What are Function ? Table Of Contents Introduction with beautiful example Here's a plant, and what you see here is it's  shadow. Can you list the things that the length of the shadow is dependent on. One, it's dependent on the position of the source of light. Anything else that you can think of. If the height of the plant grows then the shadows length will also change, right. So the length of the shadow is dependent on the position of the source of light, and the height of the plant too. So we can say that the length of the shadow is a function of the following two things. The output is dependent on these two things, which could be considered as the inputs. That's a very simple way to understand functions. Could you think of more inputs, this output is dependent on here, tell us yours answers in the comment section below.  How do Function work in calculus ? That's what we'll see in this topics. Previously, we saw an idea to find the instant...
