Improper Integral + How to Solve
Integral having infinite limit of integration (horizontal asymptote) or an unbounded integrand (vertical integrand), can’t apply FTC to infinity, use limits that may equal a number (converge) or not (diverge)
- Sketch graph + Find VA & HA, edit integral accordingly
- FTC
- Evaluate Limit in terms of FTC (sketch graph)
- Check/Do It by splitting p-test or comparison test or limit comparison test
What functions can the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus be used?
- FTC can be used to evaluate continuous functions & those with finite number of jump discontinuities by subdividing interval into continuous function.
- Analytical Function, not an empirical (data) or numerical function
- Antiderivatie can be found based on elementary functions
Converge vs Diverge
Improper Integral Converges: limit exists as a number → integral is this number
- Function approaches bounds fast enough to enclose an area
Improper Integral Diverges: all other cases → integral diverges to +,-, oscillating, etc. ,
- Function approaches bounds too slow, area is never enclosed
Define + Solve Infinite Domain
Possesing a never ending domain (horizontal asymptote)
ex. InfinityS0 e^(-x) dx
1. Draw + limit
2. FTC
3. Solve limit
Define + Solve Unbounded Integrand (Singularity)
Integral that doesn’t posses an upper or lower bound (vertical asymptote)
infS-inf
ex. 4S0 1/x dx
1. Draw + Separate Integral if VA exists + limit
2. FTC
3. Solve limit
Define + Solve 2 Infinities
Must be split at an intermediate point
Bounds are inf S -inf
1. Draw + limit
2. FTC
3. Solve limit
Define + Solve Infinity at middle point
Must be split at that point
1. Draw + limit
2. FTC
3. Solve limit
When does a split integral converge and diverge? To what value?
Integral converges to the sum of both if both integrals converge.
All other cases it diverges.
P-Test
- Split integral at 1
- Evaluate
Converges:
- 1S0 1/x^p p<1
- 1Sinfinity 1/x^p p>1
Diverges:
- 1S0 1/x^p p>1
- 1Sinfinity 1/x^p p<1
Always Diverges: infinty S 0 1/x^p
P-Test Proof

Comparison Test
Evaluating difficult/impossible improper integrals if f and g are integrable
Smaller than a convergent (finite), must converge (finite):
g(x)>f(x), g(x) converges –> f(x) converges
Larger than a divergent (infinity), must divergent (infinity):
g(x)<f(x), g(x) diverges –> f(x) diverges
Drawing
Limit Comparison Test + When to Use + Inconclusive
a S infinity
- g(x)=dominating/higher order of f(x)
e^x>x^n>logx
1/logx>1/x^n>1/e^x - lim x->infinity f(x)/g(x) exists/finite/similar in speed
- Evaluate g(x)
- g(x) c/v –> f(x) c/v
Useful: quotient of polynomyials, g(x)=highest terms or replace sin(x)>-1, cos(x)<1
Inconclusive: comparison doesn’t work or hard to cancel out terms
Absolute, Relative, Max Error
A=approximation, Q=True Value=(Q-A)+A
Absolute Error: A-Q=Q-A
Relative Error/Percentage Change: (A-Q)/Q
Upper Bounds/Threshold/Maximum Absolute Error/Worst Case Scenario: if f a 4x differentiable function
- Trapezoid: M/12 (b-a)^3/n^2>abs. error (M=max value f’‘(x) when x[a,b])
- Simpson: L/180 (b-a)^5/n^4>abs. error (L-max value f’’’‘(x) when x[a,b]) –> must be even # over 4
Why error Riemann>Trapezoid>Simpson
- S=n4=1/180>T=n2=1/12 error gets smaller faster as denominator is larger/tends to 0 faster, larger the denominator smaller the error
- However: T=(b-a)3>S=(b-a)5 error gets larger faster as numerator is larger+4th derivative can behave worse than 2nd derivative
- M & L measure how oscillating the function/how hard to approximate
- More accurate/precise approx. more data points required, two consecutive intervals, 3 points
- Higher the degree, the better the approximation
When Trapezoidal>Simpson
- Less than 4x differentiable, f degree below 2
- n<4 or odd
Compute Spreadsheet R, T, S

Key Idea+Formulas of Numerical Integration
Replace rectangles by geometric objects that better approximate the function within each small interval(s)
The higher the degree of approximation, the more accurate/better it is, as it accounts for more info/points and precision
Change x = b-a/n
xi= a+1(change x)
Riemann Right Endpoint +
Left Endpoint
Degree 0 (Constant), least accurate, least information. Rectangles under curve.
Right: Ixj=1nf(xj)=x(0f(x0)+f(x1)+f(x2)+…f(xn))
Coefficient Pattern: 0,1,1,1,1… 1
Left:
Ixj=1nf(xj)=x(f(x0)+f(x1)+f(x2)+…0f(xn))
Coefficient Pattern: 1,1,1,1… 0
Trapezoidal Rule
Degree 1 (Linear), more accurate than Riemann, more info required
Ix(12f(x0)+f(x1)+…f(xn-1)+12f(xn))=x2(f(x0)+2f(x1)+…2f(xn-1)+f(xn))
Coefficient Pattern: ½,1,1,1… 1,½ = 1,2,2,2…2,1
Simpson`s Rule
Degree 2 (Quadratic), most accurate, most information required
Splitting approximate into pairs of intervals using quadratic function
Ix13(f(x0)+4f(x1)+2f(x2)+4f(x3)+…+2f(xn-2)+4f(xn-1)+f(xn))
Coefficient Pattern: 1,4,2,4…4,2,4,1
N must be even and above 4
How to find area bounded b/w curves?
- X/Y Starting Function: plot graph if possible and switch x or y in order to make function easily integratable
- Find Meeting Points+Bounds of Enclosed Area: f(x)=g(x), separate integrals at those points and f(x)=larger-smaller
- Evaluate: if undrawable, evaluate absolute value, area should always be positive
Partial Fractions
Goal is to reverse back large quotient into many simple small quotient with constant numerator & linear denominator which are easily integratable.
p(x)q(x)=p(x)a(x)b(x)Linear=Aa(x)+BConstantsb(x)+… Important: 1xdx=lnx+C
Find A & B: p(x)=Ab(x)+Ba(x), sub in x that cancels out one variable and isolate for the other
When to use each method of integration
- Algebra First to Simplify: ex+exdx=exeex
- SUB: function beside its derivative, complicated function inside a simple function
- IBP: 2 functions being multiplied, log, arctan
- Partial Fraction: quotient composed of factorable functions
- Trig Substitution: trig definitions (tan, cot, sec, csc), trig identities with trig powers (cos5(x)sin7(x)dx=cos5(x)(1-cos2(x))3sin(x)dx)
- Trig Integration: more complicated to less complicated (14+sqrt(x^2)dx)
