Question

How can a definite integral be evaluated using the Fundamental Theorem of Integral Calculus?

Options

• By writing the constant of integration \(C\) at both limits

• By finding an antiderivative of the given function and using the values at the upper and lower limits

• By differentiating the upper limit and lower limit

• By finding the area only from \(x=a\) to \(x=b\) without an antiderivative

Answer 1

A definite integral is evaluated by finding an antiderivative of the given function.
The values of that antiderivative are then used at the upper and lower limits.
