2. Partitions
The concept of partitions or divisions and the formation of sums are the initial steps in the
development of the theory of integration.
Let f be a continuous function dened on the closed interval [a, b].
The partition D of [a, b] is a collection of points x0, x1, x2, · · · , xn such that
a = x0 x1 x2 · · · xn = b;
that is,
D = {x0, x1, x2, · · · , xn}.
3. The norm of D, denoted by kDk, is the largest of the dierences
∆i x = xi − xi−1, where i = 1, 2, 3, · · · , n;
that is, kDk is the length of the longest interval in D.
The sum
s(f : D) =
n
X
i=1
f (ξi )(xi − xi−1), where ξi ∈ [xi−1, xi ],
is called the Riemann sum of f with respect to a partition D of [a, b].
4. Example.
(a) A partition D1 on [−1, 1] with n = 4 and
x0 = a = −1, x1 = −0.5, x2 = 0, x3 = 0.5, x4 = b = 1
is the set
D1 = {x0, x1, x2, x3, x4} = {−1, −0.5, 0, 0.5, 1}.
Observe that for each i = 1, 2, 3, 4,
∆i x = xi − xi−1 =
1
2
.
Hence, kD1k = 1
2.
5. (b) Another partition D2 on [−1, 1] with n = 8 can be made by setting
kD2k =
b − a
n
=
1 − (−1)
8
= 0.25.
In this case, for i = 1, 2, . . . , 8,
xi = a + ikD2k = a + 0.25i.
That is,
D2 = {x0, x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8}
= {−1, −0.75, −0.5, −0.25, 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1}.
6. (c) D3 = {−1, 0, 2
5, 1} is another partition of [−1, 1]. Here, kD3k = 1.
A Riemann sum s(f : D3) of f (x) = (x + 1)2 with respect to the partition
D3 = {−1, 0, 2
5, 1} on [−1, 1] is
s(f : D3) = f (ξ1)(0 − (−1)) + f (ξ2)(2
5 − 0) + f (ξ3)(1 − 2
5).
If we choose ξ1 = −0.5, ξ2 = 0.1 and ξ3 = 0.5, then
s(f : D3) = f (−0.5)(0 − (−1)) + f (0.1)(0.4 − 0) + f (0.5)(1 − 0.4)
= 0.25(1) + 1.21(0.4) + 2.25(0.6)
= 0.25 + 0.484 + 1.35
= 2.084.
7. Geometrically, the Riemann sum s(f : D3) is the sum of the areas of the shaded
rectangles below.

8. The Definite Integral
Let f be a continuous function dened on the closed interval [a, b].
The denite integral of f from a to b is given by
lim
kDk→0
n
X
i=1
f (ξi )(xi − xi−1),
where D = {x0, x1, . . . , xn} is a partition of [a, b].
The symbol
Z b
a
f (x)dx is used to denote this denite integral.
The numbers a and b are then called the lower and the upper limits of the
denite integral, respectively.
9. Properties of the Definite Integrals

10. Theorem.

[a, b] and

11. Theorem. (First Fundamental Theorem of Calculus)
Let f be a continuous function function on [a, b]. If F is the function
dened by
F(x) =
Z x
a
f (t)dt
for every x in [a, b], then F0
(x) = f (x) for all x ∈ [a, b], that is, F is an
antiderivative of f .
12. Theorem. (Second Fundamental Theorem of Calculus)
Let f be a continuous function on [a, b] and let F be an antiderivative of f ,
that is, F0
(x) = f (x) for all x ∈ [a, b]. Then
Z b
a
f (x)dx = F(x)|b
a = F(b) − F(a).
