1 Indefinite Integrals or Antiderivatives
You should distinguish carefully between definite and indefinite integrals. A definite integral is a number, whereas an indefinite integral is a function (or family of functions).

2 Antiderivative An antiderivative of a function f is a function F such that Ex. An antiderivative of is since

3 Indefinite Integral The expression:
read “the indefinite integral of f with respect to x,” means to find the set of all antiderivatives of f. x is called the variable of integration Integrand Integral sign

4 Constant of Integration
Every antiderivative F of f must be of the form F(x) = G(x) + C, where C is a constant. Notice Represents every possible antiderivative of 6x.

5 Power Rule for the Indefinite Integral, Part I
Ex.

6 Power Rule for the Indefinite Integral, Part II
Indefinite Integral of ex and bx

7 Sum and Difference Rules
Ex. Constant Multiple Rule Ex.

8 Table of Indefinite Integrals

9 Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (part 1)
If is continuous for , then

10 Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (part 2)
1. Derivative of an integral. 2. Derivative matches upper limit of integration. 3. Lower limit of integration is a constant.

11 Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (part 2)

12 The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
Ex.

13 The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
Ex.

14 First Fundamental Theorem:
1. Derivative of an integral. 2. Derivative matches upper limit of integration. 3. Lower limit of integration is a constant.

15 1. Derivative of an integral.
2. Derivative matches upper limit of integration. 3. Lower limit of integration is a constant.

16 The upper limit of integration does not match the derivative, but we could use the chain rule.

17 The lower limit of integration is not a constant, but the upper limit is.
We can change the sign of the integral and reverse the limits.

18 Neither limit of integration is a constant.
We split the integral into two parts. It does not matter what constant we use! (Limits are reversed.) (Chain rule is used.)
