The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (4/24/09) It tells us how the antiderivative and the (definite) integral are related. Part 1 says that we can find out the integral of a function f on an interval by evaluating an antiderivative F of f. Part 2 says we can manufacture an antiderivative of f by turning the integral into a function by “freeing up” the right hand endpoint.

FTC Part 1 This is the one we have been using for a week now, and it’s what most people think of as the Fundamental Theorem. Theorem. If F (x) is any antiderivative of f (x), then
6
The Idea Behind Part 1 Since F is an antiderivative of f, f is the rate of change of F. The integral of f on [a, b] is just an adding up of all its values there. If we add up all the rates of change of F over the interval [a, b], we will get the total change in F, which is just F (b) – F (a).
7
FTC Part 2 This half of the theorem is lesser known and less often used. Theorem. Given f (x), if we define F (x) by then F is an antiderivative of f.
8
Example of Part 2 There is no known antiderivative formula for f (x) = e x^2, but Part 2 of the Fundamental Theorem says that we can manufacture an antiderivative by turning the right hand endpoint of the integral into the input variable:
9
Summary and Assignment In summary: FTC: Given f on [a, b], Part 1: antiderivative (a function) integral (a number) via evaluation at b and a. Part 2: integral (a number) antiderivative (a function) via turning b into the input variable x. Assignment: Work on HW#4 and on these ideas. See you Monday.
