What is area under a curve?
Show answer
For f(x)0\mathrm{f}(x) \geq 0 on [a,b][a, b], the area between the curve and the xx-axis is abf(x)dx\displaystyle\int_a^b \mathrm{f}(x)\,dx.
What are area between two curves?
Show answer
If the curve y=f(x)y = \mathrm{f}(x) lies above y=g(x)y = \mathrm{g}(x) on [a,b][a, b], the enclosed area is
What are wrong order in area between curves?
Show answer
Use upper minus lower; reversing gives a negative result.
What is q1?
Show answer
