5.4 Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

If you were being sent to a desert island and could take only one equation with you,
x
a
df t dt f x
dx
might well be your choice.
Here is my favorite calculus textbook quote of all time, from CALCULUS by Ross L. Finney and George B. Thomas, Jr., ©1990.
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Part 1
If f is continuous on , then the function ,a b

The upper limit of integration does not match the derivative, but we could use the chain rule.

We can change the sign of the integral and reverse the limits.

We split the integral into two parts.
The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, Part 2
If f is continuous at every point of , and if
F is any antiderivative of f on , then

(Also called the Integral Evaluation Theorem)
We already know this!
To evaluate an integral, take the anti-derivatives and subtract.
