Quick Reference (9)

Resource type Evaluating definite integrals
This leaflet explains what is meant by a definite integral and how it can be evaluated. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 8.9)
Resource type Integration as summation
An integral is defined as an infinite sum. This leaflet explains how this is done. This notion is important when we want to apply integration in many fields. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 8.12)
Resource type Integration as the reverse of differentiation
Integration is introduced here as the reverse of differentiation. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 8.6)

Resource type Integration by substitution
Some integrals can be evaluated by making an appropriate substitution to change the variable. This leaflet explains how this can be done. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 8.11)

Resource type Finding areas by integration
This unit looks at how to calculate the area bounded by a curve using integration.
Resource type Integration as a summation
The second major component of the Calculus is called integration. This may be introduced as a means of finding areas using summation and limits. We shall adopt this approach in the present Unit. In later units, we shall also see how integration may be related to differentiation.
Resource type Integration as the reverse of differentiation
This unit explain integration as the reverse of differentiation.
Resource type Integration by parts
A special rule, integration by parts, is available for integrating products of two functions. This unit derives and illustrates this rule with a number of examples.
Resource type Integration by substitution
This unit explain integration by substitution.
Resource type Integration that leads to logarithms
The derivative of ln x is 1/x. As a consequence, if we reverse the process, the integral of 1/x is ln x+c. In this unit we generalise this result and see how a wide variety of integrals result in logarithm functions.
Resource type Integration using a table of anti-derivatives
We may regard integration as the reverse of differentiation. So if we have a table of derivatives, we can read it backwards as a table of anti-derivatives. When we do this, we often need to deal with constants which arise in the process of differentiation.
Resource type Integration using partial fractions 1
Sometimes the integral of an algebraic fraction can be found by first expressing the algebraic fraction as the sum of its partial fractions. In this unit we will illustrate this idea. We will see that it is also necessary to draw upon a wide variety of other techniques such as completing the square, integration by substitution, using standard forms, and so on.
Resource type Integration using partial fractions 2
In this unit we are going to look at how we can integrate some more algebraic fractions. We shall concentrate on the case where the denominator of the fraction involves an irreducible quadratic factor. The case where all the factors of the denominator are linear has been covered in the first unit on integration using partial fractions.
Resource type Integration using trig identities and trig substitutions.
This unit explains how trig identities and trig substitutions can help when finding integrals.
Resource type Volumes of solids of revolution
We sometimes need to calculate the volume of a solid which can be obtained by rotating a curve about the x-axis. There is a straightforward technique which enables this to be done, using integration. This unit will explain how.

Resource type Finding areas by integration
Integration can be used to calculate areas. In simple cases, the area is given by a single definite integral. But sometimes the integral gives a negative answer which is minus the area, and in more complicated cases the correct answer can be obtained only by splitting the area into several parts and adding or subtracting the appropriate integrals.

There are occasions when it is possible to perform an apparently difficult piece of integration by first making a substitution. This has the effect of changing the variable and the integrand.
