INTEGRATION or ANTI-DIFFERENTIATION 1.1.THE CONCEPT OF INTEGRAL Now,consider the question :” Given that y is a function of x and Clearly , We have learnt that ( differentiation process ) , what is the function ? ‘ is an answer but is it the only answer ?
Familiarity with the differentiation process would indicate that and in fact , where c is can be any real number are also possible answer Thus , where c is called an arbitrary constant This process is the reverse process of differentiation and is called integration .
SYMBOL OF INTEGRATION We know that Hence , Symbolically , we write
Is called an indefinite integral. In general, then The expression Is called an indefinite integral. Is an indefinite integral
When In general : When n = 0 ,
EXAMPLE: 1. 2.The gradient of a curve , at the point ( x,y ) on the curve is given by Solution : Given Given that the curve passes through the point ( 1, 1) , find the equation of the curve.
Since the curve passes through the point ( 1,1 ) , we can substitusi x = 1 and y = 1 into ( 1 ) to obtain the constant term c . The equation of the curve is
2.Find Solution :

INTEGRATION OF TRIGONOMETRICAL FUNCTION If y = sin x then If y = cos x then If y = tan x then If y = sec x then
If y = cot x then Hence :
where a , b and c are constant . In each of the above cases , x is measured in radians and c denotes an arbitrary constant. as in differentiation , integration of trigonometrical function is performed only when the angles involved are measured in radians In general : where a , b and c are constant .
Where a , b and c are constant
Where a,b and c are constants
Example: Find The following integrals: 1. 2. 3. 4.
DEFINITE INTEGRAL y Consider f(x) = 3 The area bounded by y = 3 , the line x = a and x = b and the axis is A = 3 ( b – a ) = 3b – 3a = F(b) – F(a) y = 3 x a b
We can write F(b) – F(a) simply as Further
Similarly , consider f(x) = x + 1 y = x+1 (b,b+1) (a,a+1) 1 a b
The area bounded by y = x + 1 , the lines x = a and x = b , and axis is
In general , if x = a and x = b is given by then the definite integral of f(x) between the limits

SUBSTITUTION ( ALGEBRAIC) Consider the integral : We may find this integral by expanding Suppose that v = 2x + 5 , then So that , or we can use the following way.
This method is called substitution. Now consider the integral : , where n ≠ -1 Now consinder the integral : Suppose v = ax + b then So that
So if n ≠ 1 then If we use the formula to the previous problem , we obtain : If in formula ( 1 ) n = ½ then
If in formula ( 1 ) we replace n by then So So that : … ( 2)
Exsample : 1. 2.
Consider now the following integral : Where n ≠1 Suppose that So that Thus then … ( 3)
Meanwhile by using formula ( 2 ) we obtain : Example : 1. 2.
If in formula( 2 ) we replace n by then so that … ( 4 )
Net consider the integral In the case when k is any constant
So that constant then …( 5 )
Example: Answer : Ordinary way : Suppose that :
