❖ The Definite Integral - Understanding the Definition ❖

The Definite Integral: Understanding the Definition
In this video, we dive deep into the definition of the definite integral, exploring its conceptual meaning and breaking down the limit process involved in defining the integral. By understanding how the sum of the areas of rectangles approaches the area under a curve as the number of rectangles increases, we build the foundation for understanding what a definite integral represents. Note that this video focuses on the theory and definition, rather than the computation of definite integrals.

What You Will Learn:
The definition of the definite integral and its connection to the area under a curve.
How to interpret the limit of Riemann sums as a way to understand the integral.
The process of dividing an interval into subintervals and evaluating the function at sample points.
A conceptual understanding of how the integral is built from sums of areas.
