The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
If f is continuous on [a,b] and F is an antiderivative of f
on [a,b] then
Provides a way to evaluate a definite integral without using
limits. No constant of integration C is needed.

EXAMPLES:
a.
b.
c.

The Mean Value Theorem for Integration


If f is continuous on [a,b], then there exists a number
c.

EXAMPLES:
a.

b.

Average Value of a Function


If f is integrable on [a,b], then the average value of
f on the interval is

EXAMPLES:
a.

b.

The Definite Integral as a Function of x


The definite integral as a function of x accumulates the
area under the curve.

EXAMPLES:
a.

b.

Evaluate at x=2, x=5, and x=8.

The Second Fundamental Theorem of Calculus


The second fundamental theorem of calculus states
that differentiation undoes integration.
If f is continuous on an open interval (containing a),
then for every x in the interval:

EXAMPLES:
a.
b.

Using the Chain Rule with the 2nd Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
If the upper limit (b) is a function of x, rather than just
x, use substitution then use the chain rule.

EXAMPLES:
a.
