Question

Geometrically, a definite integral is interpreted as what?

Options

• Antiderivative with no limits

• Constant C from \[x=a\] to \[x=b\]

• Function family between two limits

• Net area between the graph of \[y=f(x)\] and the x-axis from \[x=a\] to \[x=b\]

Answer 1

A definite integral represents the net area between the graph of \[y=f(x)\] and the x-axis. The interval is from \[x=a\] to \[x=b\].
