For a complete list of integral functions, see lists of integrals. ... Integrals involving s = √ x 2 − a 2. Assume x 2 > a 2 (for x 2 < a 2, see next section):
Then | | = (()) +, where sgn(x) is the sign function, which takes the values −1, 0, 1 when x is respectively negative, zero or positive. This can be proved by computing the derivative of the right-hand side of the formula, taking into account that the condition on g is here for insuring the continuity of the integral.
This visualization also explains why integration by parts may help find the integral of an inverse function f −1 (x) when the integral of the function f(x) is known. Indeed, the functions x(y) and y(x) are inverses, and the integral ∫ x dy may be calculated as above from knowing the integral ∫ y dx.
In mathematics, the definite integral ∫ a b f ( x ) d x {\displaystyle \int _{a}^{b}f(x)\,dx} is the area of the region in the xy -plane bounded by the graph of f , the x -axis, and the lines x = a and x = b , such that area above the x -axis adds to the total, and that below the x -axis subtracts from the total.
Integrands of the form x m (a + b x n + c x 2n) p when b 2 − 4 a c = 0 [ edit ] The resulting integrands are of the same form as the original integrand, so these reduction formulas can be repeatedly applied to drive the exponents m and p toward 0.
Integral as area between two curves. Double integral as volume under a surface z = 10 − ( x 2 − y 2 / 8 ).The rectangular region at the bottom of the body is the domain of integration, while the surface is the graph of the two-variable function to be integrated.
For a complete list of integral functions, see list of integrals. Note: x > 0 is assumed throughout this article, and the constant of integration is omitted for simplicity. Integrals involving only logarithmic functions
The integral can be reduced to a single integration by reversing the order of integration as shown in the right panel of the figure. To accomplish this interchange of variables, the strip of width dy is first integrated from the line x = y to the limit x = z , and then the result is integrated from y = a to y = z , resulting in:
