LESSON PRESENTATION: The teacher presents the lesson step by step by first asking the students questions based on previous lessons, for example, what is differentiation, rules of differentiation, Etc. 

 

STEP 1 

MODE: Entire Class 

TEACHER’S ACTIVITIES 

 

Definition: 

The process of reversing differentiation is called INTEGRATION or integration is the opposite of differentiation INDEFINITE INTEGRATION Integration is represented by elongated s i.e. ∫ In general ∫ 𝑥 𝑛 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑥 𝑛+1 𝑛+1 + 𝐾 I.e. increase the power by one and divide by new power. Where K is a constant of the integration 

Example: Evaluate ∫ 5𝑥 4 𝑑𝑥 

Solution 

∫ 5𝑥 4 𝑑𝑥 = 

5𝑥 4+1 4 + 1 + 𝐾 = 

5𝑥 5 5 + 𝐾 = 𝑥 5 + k

 

I.e. increase the power by one and divide by new power. Where K is a constant of the integration 

Example: 

Evaluate ∫ 5𝑥 4 𝑑𝑥 Solution ∫ 5𝑥 4 𝑑𝑥 = 5𝑥 4+1 4 + 1 + 𝐾 = 5𝑥 5 5 + 𝐾 = 𝑥 5 + 𝐾

TEACHER’S ACTIVITIES 

INDEFINITE INTEGRALS II (CHANGE OF VARIABLE) In some problems, the integral do not fit in directly, in such cases, a substitution involving a change of the variable will help 

Example: Solve ∫ cos 2𝜃 𝑑𝜃 

Solution 

Let 𝑢 = 2𝜃 𝑑𝑢 𝑑𝜃 = 2 𝑑𝜃 = 𝑑𝑢 2 Then, substituting for 2𝜃 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑑𝜃 ∫ cos 2𝜃 𝑑𝜃 = ∫ cos 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 2 = 1 2 ∫ cos 𝑢 𝑑𝑢 = 1 2 sin 𝑢 + 𝐾 = 1 2 sin 2𝜃 + K

TEACHER’S ACTIVITIES 

If the numerator is a derivative of the denominator That is,∫ 𝑔 1𝑥 𝑔(𝑥) 𝑑𝑥 = ln 𝑔(𝑥) + 𝐾 Where 𝑔 1𝑥 is the derivative of 𝑔(𝑥)
