Introduction
Integration is an important concept in mathematics and together with its inverse; differentiation,
is one of the two main operations in calculus. Integration can be considered as the reverse
process of differentiation, that is, integration is the process of finding a function given its
derivative. Applications of anti-differentiation arise in problems in which we know the rate of
change of a function and want to find the function itself. Since velocity is rate of change of
displacement, we must anti-differentiate to find the displacement. Definite integration, on the other
hand, can be used to find areas, volumes, length of arcs, centroids and many other useful
quantities. In this lesson, you will learn how to evaluate simple integrals by reversing the process
of differentiation, and by applying the basic rules of integration.

FAQs
The basic concept in integral calculus is that we must always never forget the relation of our
integrand ( f(x) ) to our differential ( dx ). That if we take the derivative of our f(x) it must always be
equal to our dx. For example, in our problem #1;
∫ 3𝑥𝑑𝑥 = 3 ∫ 𝑥𝑑𝑥
If we take the differential of our integrand which is “x” in the equation, then we will get “dx”. If we satisfy
that condition, we can no proceed in our integration.

INTEGRAND
But, for example, we have this problem;
If we take the differential of our integrand which is “(𝑥 2 − 3)” in the equation, then we will get “2xdx”.
We did not satisfy the condition for we have an excess of “2” instead of only having “xdx”. In order for
us to proceed in our solution, we need the aid of substitution. How? Let’s try;
𝑢 = (𝑥 2 − 3)
𝑑𝑢 = 2𝑥𝑑𝑥
𝑑𝑢
= 𝑥𝑑𝑥
2
So now we have a value for “(𝑥 2 − 3)” and “xdx”. Let’s substitute.
𝑑𝑢
∫ 𝑥(𝑥 2 − 3)𝑑𝑥 = ∫ 𝑢 ( )

A. LESSON PREVIEW/REVIEW
Introduction
Integration can be used to find areas, volumes, central points and many useful things. But it is often
used to find the area under the graph of a function like this:
The area can be found by adding slices that approach zero in width:
And there are Rules of Integration that help us get the answer.
Notation
The symbol for "Integral" is a stylish "S" (for "Sum", the idea of summing slices):
After the Integral Symbol we put the function we want to find the integral of (called the Integrand).
And then finish with dx to mean the slices go in the x direction (and approach zero in width).
Definite Integral has start and end values: in other words there is an interval [a, b].
a and b (called limits, bounds or boundaries) are put at the bottom and top of the "S", like this:
We find the Definite Integral by calculating the Indefinite Integral at a, and at b, then subtract.
In this module we will be discussing the properties, concept and the procedure in solving for the definite
integrals for us to be ready in the application of integral calculus.
B.MAIN LESSON
Definition: If f is a continuous function defined for a x b, then the definite integral of f from a to b, is
n
f x dx n lim f ( xi )x
b
a
i 1
provided that this limit exists. If it does exist, we say that 𝑓 is integrable on the closed interval [a, b].
b
From the definition, it must be noted that we cannot obtain the definite integrals of those functions having
2 1
a point of discontinuity anywhere in the closed interval [a, b]. For example,
0 x2
dx
does not have a
1
2
definite integral because the function x is discontinuous at 𝑥 = 0. Bear always in mind that we just
can’t integrate functions that are not continuous in its interval of integration.
Now if we have indefinite integrals (or generally, anti-derivatives), we also have definite integrals. Let's
take a look at how their characteristics differ.
This result connects the purely algebraic indefinite integral and the purely analytic (or geometric) definite
integral. It is important to note that an indefinite integral is a function (or family of functions), whereas the
definite integral is a number.
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus (FTC) is an extremely powerful theorem that establishes the
relationship between differentiation and integration, and gives us a way to evaluate definite integrals
without using Riemann sums or calculating areas. The theorem is comprised of two parts: FTC I connect
differential calculus with integration, that is, if 𝑓(𝑥)is continuous over an interval [a, b], and the function
F x f t dt F x f x
x d
𝐹(𝑥) is defined by
a then dx or F ' ' x f x over [a, b]. More explicitly,
Part I says that if a function is integrated (to form a definite integral with a variable upper limit of
integration), and the result is then differentiated, the original function is recovered; that is, differentiation
“undoes” integration. Part II allows definite integrals to be computed in terms of indefinite integrals
because if 𝑓 is any anti-derivative/indefinite integral of a continuous function 𝑓 on the closed interval [a,
f ( x)dx F x F b F a .

Introduction
Logarithmic functions- which are inverses of exponential functions- occur prominently in fields as diverse
as acoustics and seismology. The logarithm is a basic function from which many other functions are built-
, whereas the exponential function is perhaps the most efficient function in terms of the operations of
calculus. Because these two functions, which are inverses of each other, have a lot of applications and
occur frequently in physical sciences, it can be very helpful to be able to integrate them. In our study on
integration resulting to logarithmic functions, we will focus on logarithms with base e which are called
natural logarithms, and the irrational Euler Number e ( e =2.71828…) is the natural base, that is,
log e x = ln x .
Now let us recall the properties of exponents and logarithms, and some basic definitions and rules in
manipulating exponentials and logarithmic functions. In this lesson, we explore integration logarithmic
functions only.
B.MAIN LESSON
y ex if and only if ln y x.
This implies that natural logarithmic and exponential functions are inverses of each other.
Therefore ln y x
Nearly all of the integrals involving exponential functions come down to two basic formulas. Here, we
consider only one integration formula leading to natural logarithms.

Introduction
The exponential function is one of the most important functions in mathematics (though it would have to
admit that the linear function ranks even higher in importance). To form an exponential function, we let
the independent variable be the exponent. A simple example is the function
𝑓(𝑥) = 2𝑥 .
As illustrated in the above graph of ff, the exponential function increases rapidly. Exponential functions
are solutions to the simplest types of dynamical systems. For example, an exponential function arises
Euler's number is a constant that appears in a variety of mathematical contexts. It is defined as the
If 𝒚 = 𝒆𝒙 , then 𝒙 = 𝐥𝐧 𝒚
e is an irrational number equal to 2.71828182845… and is used as a base for natural exponential
functions, such as 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝒆𝒙 .
ln is a natural logarithm with e as its base (𝒍𝒏 = 𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒆 ) and is used to determine the exponents of natural
exponential functions. Natural logarithmic functions take the form, 𝒇(𝒙) = 𝐥𝐧 𝒙.

Introduction
Trigonometry finds importance in various fields such as in astronomy, geography, engineering,
navigation, aviation, surveying, architecture, medical imaging (MRI), and even in the investigation of
crime scene. Now, knowing these real-life applications, every student of mathematics is also expected to
know that the study of calculus is based on algebra and trigonometry.
This lesson covers the trigonometric functions and some basic materials on integration. You will learn
how to apply not only the trigonometric identities. Normally, the applications of trigonometric and the rule
of 𝑢 -substitutions transform the original integrand into a standard form which makes integration a lot
easier. Your knowledge on the integration of trigonometric functions is relevant to our future lessons on
applications of integration.
B.MAIN LESSON
Now, let us deal with each of these functions separately and then compare and contrast them.
Reversing the formulas of the differentials of trigonometric functions, we immediately obtain the
following integration formulas.
We also need to recall some definitions of trigonometric functions and its basic identities to be
able to apply them.

Similarly, it can be shown that ∫ 𝑐𝑜𝑡 𝑥 𝑑𝑥. = 𝑙𝑛|𝑠𝑖𝑛 𝑥 | + 𝐶
EXAMPLE PROBLEM #2
∫ 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 𝑑𝑥.
Solution: To find the integral of secant function, the only way is to multiply and divide it by 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 + 𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑥,
as follows:
𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥+𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑥
∫ 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 𝑑𝑥.= sec xdx. 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥+𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑥
𝑠𝑒𝑐 2 𝑥+𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑥
∫ 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 𝑑𝑥.=∫ 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥+𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑥 𝑑𝑥
This gives us a rational function, so we think of using the integral that leads to logarithms.
Put 𝑢 = 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 + 𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑥, so 𝑑𝑢 = (𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 𝑡𝑎𝑛 𝑥 + 𝑠𝑒𝑐 2 𝑥)𝑑𝑥.
𝑑𝑢
Therefore it gives us ∫ 𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝑥 𝑑𝑥.= ∫
𝑢
= 𝑙𝑛|𝑢| + 𝐶
= 𝒍𝒏|𝒔𝒆𝒄 𝒙 + 𝒕𝒂𝒏 𝒙| + 𝑪
Using a similar process to evaluate∫ 𝑐𝑠𝑐 𝑥 𝑑𝑥., just multiply and divide by𝑐𝑠𝑐 𝑥 − 𝑐𝑜𝑡 𝑥, assign the
denominator as u and then obtain du, we will have
As a summary, we have the additional formulas to the integrals of trigonometric functions which you will
find very applicable in the succeeding lessons.

Introduction
Hyperbolic functions find wide applications to some quantities in science and engineering such as light,
velocity, electricity, and radioactivity. Its most famous physical application is in catenaries, where
hyperbolic cosine is used to describe the curve formed by hanging wires and cables.
This lesson covers the hyperbolic functions and some basic materials on integration. You will learn how
to apply hyperbolic identities and the relationship between hyperbolic and exponential functions.
Normally, the applications of trigonometric and hyperbolic identities and the rule of u -substitutions
transform the original integrand into a standard form which makes integration a lot easier. Your
knowledge on the integration of trigonometric functions and hyperbolic functions are relevant to our future
lessons on applications of integration.
B. MAIN LESSON
Recall from previous concepts in differential calculus that the hyperbolic functions are defined in terms
of the exponential functions as listed in Table 1.

2. cosh x

5. sec hx
2 e x e x
e ex

e x ex
3. tanh x x 6. coth x x

Term-by-term differentiation of the exponential expressions yields the differentiation formulas for
hyperbolic functions. For example,
x x
d
sinh x d e e
dx dx 2
e x ex

e ex

Therefore from the definition we have
d

dx
These differentiation formulas for the hyperbolic functions, give rise, in turn, to the following
integration formulas found in Table 3.
Notice that the differentiation and integration formulas are analogous with that of the
trigonometric functions, but the signs differ in some cases. Also, there are a lot of similarities as
well as differences on the identities of the two functions. These are listed in Table 4.

These identities, together with the definitions of hyperbolic functions are important tools in
simplifying integrands and make integration a lot easier.

Introduction
Inverse trigonometric functions, also known as “arcus functions” or anti-trigonometric functions, are
widely used in engineering, navigation, physics and geometry. One of its many uses is to find the
angle of a triangle from any of the trigonometric functions. Generally, the inverse trigonometric
functions are represented by adding arc in prefix for a trigonometric function, or by adding the
power of -1, such as: Inverse of sin x is arcsin x or sin 1 x .
In this lesson we focus on integrals that result in inverse trigonometric functions.
B. MAIN LESSON
Recall that from what you’ve learned in differential calculus, the derivatives of inverse trigonometric
functions are not trigonometric expressions, but algebraic. Now, performing the process of integration
on these algebraic expressions yield the inverse trigonometric functions. Let us start with the
differentiation rules of the inverse trigonometric functions, as well as the integration formulas leading to
inverse trigonometric functions listed below.

Notice that these formulas are obtained as a direct result of integrating the differentials of the inverse
trigonometric functions. In dealing with these integrands, always remember to transform the given
integrand to u du form using the simple substitution ( u - substitution) rule. Likewise, take note that du
is the differential of u .

It can be observed that all the integration formulas leading to inverse trigonometric functions have
binomial expressions in them. Here, an algebraic operation called completing the square can be
performed to reduce a quadratic expression that may be found in the integrand, as a sum or difference
of two squares. The quadratic x 2 bx c can be expressed as a difference (or sum) of two squares by
adding and subtracting the square of one-half the coefficient of x . That is,
