Recognize antiderivatives of
basic functions.
An antiderivative of a
function f is a function
g whose derivative is f.
Differentiation rules
provide the foundation for
finding antiderivatives.
Calculate Antiderivatives
The notation ∫풇(풙)풅풙=
푭풙+푪 means that
푭′(풙)=풇(풙) and ∫풇(풙) is
called an indefinite integral
of the function f.
Techniques for finding
antiderivatives include
algebraic manipulation such
as long division and
completing
the square, substitution of
variables.
