definite integral
given a function
that is continuous on the interval
, we divide the interval into
subintervals of equal width,
, and from each interval choose a point,
. then the definite integral of
from
to
is:
in practicality:
this is our first exercise dealing with integration of a function containing
, we use integration by parts
we use the same method to find the integral on the right
then we substitute the result of the integral in the original equation
