1.3A review of integration techniques
We review common techniques to compute indefinite and definite integrals.
2.1Area 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.
3.1Accumulated cross-sections
We can also use the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to set up integrals
to compute volumes.
4.1What is a solid of revolution?
We define a solid of revolution and discuss how to find the volume of one in two
different ways.
4.2The washer method
We use the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to develop the washer
method to compute volumes of solids of revolution.
4.3The shell method
We use the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to develop the shell method
to compute volumes of solids of revolution.
5.1Length of curves
We can use the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to find the length of
curves.
6.1Physical applications
We apply the procedure of “Slice, Approximate, Integrate” to model physical
situations.
7.1Integration 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.
8.1Trigonometric integrals
We can use substitution and trigonometric identities to find antiderivatives of certain
types of trigonometric functions.
9.1Trigonometric substitution
We integrate by substitution with the appropriate trigonometric function.
11.1Improper Integrals
We can use limits to integrate functions on unbounded domains or functions with
unbounded range.
12.2Representing sequences visually
We can graph the terms of a sequence and find functions of a real variable that
coincide with sequences on their common domains.
17.1Higher Order Polynomial Approximations
We can approximate sufficiently differentiable functions by polynomials.
23.1Introduction to polar coordinates
Polar coordinates are coordinates based on an angle and a radius.
28.1The Dot Product
The dot product is an important operation between vectors that captures geometric
information.
28.2Projections and orthogonal decomposition
Projections tell us how much of one vector lies in the direction of another and are
important in physical applications.
29.1The cross product
The cross product is a special way to multiply two vectors in three-dimensional
space.
32.2Parameterizing by arc length
We find a new description of curves that trivializes arc length computations.
34.1Functions of several variables
We introduce functions that take vectors or points as inputs and output a
number.
35.1Open and Closed Sets
We generalize the notion of open and closed intervals to open and closed sets in
.
37.2Differentiability
We introduce differentiability for functions of several variables and find tangent
planes.
