Integration (Add Maths Form 5)

Integration is basically the inverse process to differentiation. Instead of multiplying by the index and reducing the index by one (as in differentiation,) we increase the index by one and divide by the new index.







You may be wondering what  + \;C is. It is because the derivative of any constant term is zero.
C is what referred as the (arbitrary) constant of integration. The value of C can be found when some more  information is given, which gives a particular integral.
