What is integration and differentiation? |
Answer» In calculus, differentiation means dividing a whole into many parts and integration means adding up several parts into whole.<br>Differentiation is the essence of Calculus. A derivative is defined as the instantaneous rate of change in function based on one of its variables. It is similar to finding the slope of a tangent to the function at a point.Integration is a method to find definite and indefinite integrals. The integration of a function f(x) is given by F(x) and it is represented by:whereR.H.S. of the equation indicates integral of f(x) with respect to xF(x) is called anti-derivative or primitive.f(x) is called the integrand.dx is called the integrating agent.C is the constant of integration or arbitrary constant.x is the variable of integration. | |
