Interval of Integration

Definition

An interval of integration is a range between two values that determines which part(s) of a function will be included in calculating an integral.

Antiderivative:

An antiderivative is essentially an "undo" function for differentiation. It allows us to find functions whose derivatives match a given function.

Riemann Sum:

A Riemann sum is an approximation method used in calculus to estimate definite integrals by dividing an interval into smaller subintervals and evaluating them using sample points.

Bounds:

Bounds refer to the upper and lower limits that define an interval. In calculus, they often represent values used for integration or differentiation purposes.
