Riemann Sums & the Definite Integral (Day 18)Forgot it? Go back and study again →

Definite integral as a limit of Riemann sums

abf(x)dx=limni=1nf(xi)Δx,Δx=ban\int_a^b f(x)\,dx = \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum_{i=1}^{n} f(x_i^*)\,\Delta x, \quad \Delta x = \frac{b-a}{n}

Left / right / midpoint sums

xi=a+(i1)Δxx_i^* = a + (i-1)\Delta x (left),   a+iΔx\;a + i\,\Delta x (right),   a+(i12)Δx\;a + (i-\tfrac12)\Delta x (midpoint)

Increasing function: left sum underestimates, right sum overestimates. Decreasing: reversed.

Trapezoidal rule

abf(x)dxΔx2[f(x0)+2f(x1)++2f(xn1)+f(xn)]\int_a^b f(x)\,dx \approx \frac{\Delta x}{2}\left[f(x_0) + 2f(x_1) + \cdots + 2f(x_{n-1}) + f(x_n)\right]

Properties

ab(cf±g)=cabf±abg,acf+cbf=abf\int_a^b (cf \pm g) = c\int_a^b f \pm \int_a^b g, \quad \int_a^c f + \int_c^b f = \int_a^b f
abf=baf,aaf=0\int_a^b f = -\int_b^a f, \quad \int_a^a f = 0

Antiderivatives & the Fundamental Theorem (Day 19)Forgot it? Go back and study again →

FTC Part 1 (evaluation)

abf(x)dx=F(b)F(a)\int_a^b f(x)\,dx = F(b) - F(a), where F=fF' = f

FTC Part 2 (differentiation)

ddxau(x)f(t)dt=f(u(x))u(x)\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^{u(x)} f(t)\,dt = f(u(x)) \cdot u'(x)

If x is the lower limit, the result picks up a minus sign.

Power rule for antiderivatives

xndx=xn+1n+1+C  (n1),1xdx=lnx+C\int x^n\,dx = \frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1} + C \;(n \neq -1), \quad \int \frac{1}{x}\,dx = \ln|x| + C

Common antiderivatives

exdx=ex+C,sinxdx=cosx+C,cosxdx=sinx+C\int e^x\,dx = e^x + C, \quad \int \sin x\,dx = -\cos x + C, \quad \int \cos x\,dx = \sin x + C
sec2xdx=tanx+C,11+x2dx=tan1x+C\int \sec^2 x\,dx = \tan x + C, \quad \int \frac{1}{1+x^2}\,dx = \tan^{-1}x + C

U-Substitution (Day 19)Forgot it? Go back and study again →

Substitution rule

f(g(x))g(x)dx=f(u)du,u=g(x),  du=g(x)dx\int f(g(x))\,g'(x)\,dx = \int f(u)\,du, \quad u = g(x),\; du = g'(x)\,dx

Definite integrals

Change the limits: if u=g(x)u = g(x) then abg(a)g(b)\int_a^b \to \int_{g(a)}^{g(b)}

Or convert back to x before plugging in the original limits — never mix.

Differential Equations & Slope Fields (Day 20)Forgot it? Go back and study again →

Separable equation

dydx=f(x)g(y)    dyg(y)=f(x)dx\frac{dy}{dx} = f(x)g(y) \;\Rightarrow\; \int \frac{dy}{g(y)} = \int f(x)\,dx

Add a single +C on the x side, then use the initial condition to solve for C.

Slope field

At each point (x,y)(x, y) draw a short segment of slope dydx(x,y)\frac{dy}{dx}\big|_{(x,y)}

Solution curves flow along the segments; horizontal where dy/dx = 0.

Exponential Growth & Decay (Day 20)Forgot it? Go back and study again →

The model

dydt=ky    y(t)=y0ekt,y0=y(0)\frac{dy}{dt} = ky \;\Rightarrow\; y(t) = y_0 e^{kt}, \quad y_0 = y(0)

k > 0 growth, k < 0 decay. Find k from a second data point.

Doubling time / half-life

Doubling time =ln2k,= \frac{\ln 2}{k}, \qquad half-life =ln2k= \frac{\ln 2}{|k|}

Average Value & Particle Motion (Day 21)Forgot it? Go back and study again →

Average value of a function

favg=1baabf(x)dxf_{\text{avg}} = \frac{1}{b-a}\int_a^b f(x)\,dx

MVT for Integrals: some c in (a, b) has f(c) = f_avg.

Displacement vs. total distance

Displacement =abv(t)dt= \int_a^b v(t)\,dt, \quad Total distance =abv(t)dt= \int_a^b |v(t)|\,dt

For distance, split at every t where v(t) = 0, then add the absolute values.

Position from velocity

s(t)=s(a)+atv(τ)dτs(t) = s(a) + \int_a^t v(\tau)\,d\tau
