Definite Integrals And Areas

Overview

A definite integral evaluates an integral between two limits and gives a number: most usefully, the area under a curve between those limits. It turns the abstract idea of integration into concrete areas and totals.

In this lesson you will evaluate definite integrals and apply integration to the evaluation of plane areas.

Objectives

  1. Evaluate definite integrals.
  2. Apply integration to the evaluation of plane areas.

Lesson Note

The definite integral connects calculus to measurement, giving exact areas under curves that simple geometry cannot reach.
