8.8 Improper Integrals Greg Kelly, Hanford High School, Richland, Washington
2
Objectives Evaluate an improper integral that has an infinite limit of integration. Evaluate an improper integral that has an infinite discontinuity.
3
Definition of a definite integral requires [a,b] to be finite.
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus requires to be continuous on [a,b]. In this section, we’ll study a procedure for evaluating integrals that don’t satisfy these requirements – usually because Either one or both of the limits of integration are infinite, or has a finite number of infinite discontinuities on [a,b].
4
Definition of Improper Integrals with Infinite Integration Limits:
If is continuous on then If is continuous on then If is continuous on then where c is any real number.
5
diverges
9
Definition of Improper Integrals with Infinite Discontinuities:
If is continuous on and has an infinite discontinuity at b, then If is continuous on and has an infinite discontinuity at a, then If is continuous on except for some c in at which has an infinite discontinuity, then
10
Discontinuous at 0
11
Discontinuous at 0 Integral diverges
12
Discontinuous at 0 Integral diverges (last example) Also diverges
13
Discontinuous at 0 Split at a convenient point like 1
