Basic Calculus

Basic Calculus is the study of differentiation and integration. Both concepts are based on the idea of limits and functions. Some concepts, like continuity, exponents, are the foundation of advanced calculus. Basic calculus explains about the two different types of calculus called “Differential Calculus” and “Integral Calculus”. Differential Calculus helps to find the rate of change of a quantity, whereas integral calculus helps to find the quantity when the rate of change is known.

Integral Calculus

Integral is the representation of the area of a region under a curve. We approximate the actual value of an integral by drawing rectangles. A definite integral of a function can be represented as the area of the region bounded by its graph of the given function between two points in the line.

Definite Integrals 

The definite integrals have a pre-existing value of limits, thus making the final value of an integral, definite. if f(x) is a function of the curve, then f(x) dx = f (b) - f (a)

Differential Calculus

Differential calculus involves finding the derivative of a function by the process of differentiation. The derivative of a function at a particular value will give the rate of change of the function near that value. A derivative is used to measure the slope of a tangent to the graph of a function.
