Area between curves
We introduce the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” and use it study the
area of a region between two curves using the definite integral.
Accumulated cross-sections
We can also use the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to set up integrals
to compute volumes.
Length of curves
We can use the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to find the length of
curves.
Physical applications
We apply the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to model physical
situations.
Integration by parts
We learn a new technique, called integration by parts, to help find antiderivatives of
certain types of products by reexamining the product rule for differentiation.
Trigonometric integrals
We can use substitution and trigonometric identities to find antiderivatives of certain
types of trigonometric functions.
Improper Integrals
We can use limits to integrate functions on unbounded domains or functions with
unbounded range.
Sequences as functions
A sequence can be thought of as a function from the integers to the real numbers.
There are two ways to establish whether a sequence has a limit.
The cross product
The cross product is a special way to multiply two vectors in three-dimensional
space.
Parameterizing by arc length
We find a new description of curves that trivializes arc length computations.
Functions of several variables
We introduce functions that take vectors or points as inputs and output a
number.
