    I've returned to calculus later in life to refresh for an exam I'm taking. It's absolutely astonishing how I perceive this to be an overcomplication (not on Khans part, but mathematics overall). It almost seems like the fundamental theorem of calculus is constructed in such a way as to deter people from attempting to wrap their heads around it, even though it is an absolutely simple concept in itself. If you have an area under a curve on an interval [a, b] you can find the area under the curve from [a, x] so long as x < b. Like I said, absolutely mind boggling that such a thing is made out to be what is is. It's literally common sense.

      The fundamental theorem of calculus relates differentiation and integration: taking the derivative of an integral with a variable upper bound gives you the original function. What you said is, "A small area can be inside of a big area."

    The intuitive explanation is rather simple: the rate of change of the area under the curve, from x=a to x, evaluated at x, per small change of x, is in fact the height of the rectangle f(x) delX, i.e value of f(x) itself, at x.

    This part simply tells us that the derivative with respect to x of the definite integral from a to x of the function f(t) is f(x). This is the part which informs us that the instantaneous rate of change with respect to x of F(x) is actually just f(x). The intuition as to why this is the case remains obscure to me despite the rigorous proof that
    dF/dx=f(x).

    FToC literally reads "the rate of change of the definite integral of f(t) for t=a to t=x depends on the value of the function f at x". If you consider integration as a summation of slices of f(t), FToC looks like a pretty obvious statement: the rate of change of the area depends on the value of the next slice i.e., f(x).

    what if the upper bound of the integral is in terms of two different integrals- i.e. x and t. would this change the derivative?

  • @chengduFTW
    @chengduFTW 9 років тому

    when you replace t s with x variables its it because basically, you are finding the definite integral of that function where its F(upper bound which is x in this case) - F(lower bound). And then taking the derivative of the function you get the original function in terms of x and since the integral of the lower bound gives you a number, the derivative of any number is just zero. so the net effect is like replacing the t with x??

    This maybe the fundamental theorem of calculus... the fundamental point of calculus and my mind is that it is a tool belt... calculus is a way of doing things that arent really possible to do another way. It uses extraordinarily powerful concepts to help us optimize and engineer things. It gets us the most for the least. The point of calculus is engineering.

    Great video! My school does not teach this, since of course I am in grade 7 only. I must say, I found this lesson quite unique... You have made this video so easy to understand, and I am 12.. Thank you very much!

    I'm curious why this is said to be a theorem and not an axiom, it looks like this defines the notation of an integral and its right inverse making me think of an axiom. Otherwise, is there a proof from axioms?

      Yes there is a proof of this theorem by Khan him self you can check it on UA-cam just search "Proof of fundamental theorem of calculus Khan academy"

    But you would need to be sure that your f(t) is continous on the intregration-interval though right?
