Integration The principles of integration were formulated independently by Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz in the late 17th century.
Just as differentiation is associated with rates of change, (gradients of tangents), integration is related to areas under curves.
Integrating is the opposite of differentiating, so: differentiate integrate But: differentiate integrate Integrating 6x….......which function do we get back to?
The derivative of any constant is 0 So when we reverse the process, ie integrate, there is no way to know if there was a constant in the original expression or what it was. Constant of Integration …………+C is always added and more information is needed before it can be determined
Integration Notation means “integrate 6x with respect to x” means “integrate f(x) with respect to x” This notation was “invented” in 1675 by the German mathematician Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz
Integration Integration is the inverse process (opposite) of differentiation Differentiating Integrating Increase power by 1 Multiply by power Divide by power Decrease power by 1 Add C ?
= Add 1 x6 + c 6 ÷ by new power
Just like differentiation, we must arrange the function as a series of powers of x before we integrate.
Determine the function f (x) We also know f (2) = 11
A curve has a derivative Given that y passes through (8 , 8) find the y coordinate when x = 1. Since (8 , 8) lies on curve y = 8 when x = 8
Area under a Curve The integral of a function can be used to determine the area between the x-axis and the graph of the function. This is a definite integral, with lower limitaand upper limitb.
Very Important Note: y = f(x) + c d a b When calculating integrals: areas above the x-axis are positive areas below the x-axis are negative When calculating the area between a curve and the x-axis: • make a sketch • calculate areas above and below the x-axis separately • ignore the negative signs and add
The Area Between Two Curves To find the area between two curves we evaluate: Top curve Bottom curve a and b are the x-coordinates of the points at which the curves intersect
Calculate the area enclosed by the lines x = 2, x = 4 and the curves y = x2 and y = 4 – x2
The cargo space of a small bulk carrier is 60m long. The shaded part of the diagram represents the uniform cross-section of this space. 9 Find the area of this cross-section and hence find the volume of cargo that this ship can carry. 1
The shape is symmetrical about the y-axis. So we calculate the area of one of the light shaded rectangles and one of the dark shaded wings. The area is then double their sum. The rectangle: let its width be s The wing: extends from x = s to x = t The area of a wing (W ) is given by:
The area of a rectangle is given by: The area of the complete shaded area is given by: The cargo volume is:
4x + y + 2 = 0 A jeweller has sketched an earring on coordinate axes, with the boundary lines as shown. Calculate its area. y = x2 + 2 y = 2x + 1 –2 –0∙5 1 Step 1: Find the x-coordinates of the intersection points Using y = – 4x – 2 andy = x2 + 2 givesx2 + 2 = – 4x - 2 x2 + 4x + 4 = 0 (x + 2)2 = 0 x = –2 Using y = 2x + 1 andy = x2 + 2 givesx2 + 2 = 2x + 1 x2 – 2x + 1 = 0 (x – 1)2 = 0 x = 1 Straight lines cut x-axis at 2x + 1 = 0 x = –0∙5
Step 2: Split area into two parts. 4x + y + 2 = 0 TOP – BOTTOM y = x2 + 2 y = 2x + 1 –2 –0∙5 1 2 1
4x + y + 2 = 0 y = x2 + 2 y = 2x + 1 –2 –0∙5 1 Area = 1∙25 sq.units Area = 0∙125 + 1∙125
