  3. The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus If f is continuous at every point of , and if F is any antiderivative of f on , then We can now easily compute more complicated definite integrals! We can thank Isaac Newton for this extremely powerful development in calculus!

  4. Let’s look at a proof of this theorem: Let be the usual partition of [a, b]: If we write the difference F(b) – F(a) by subtracting one term from its previous term and adding like terms, we get: By the Mean Value Theorem (for derivatives), there must be a number ciin the interval such that:

  5. Since F is the antiderivative of f, we know that: We can say that: So what happens to this summation as ? We get the definite integral: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usfiAsWR4qU Hooray, we know an easier way!!

  6. Ex. 1 Evaluate: First find the antiderivative of: What about the C value?

  7. Ex. 2 Evaluate:
