The document discusses the relationship between integration and calculating the area under a curve. It shows that the area under a curve from x=a to x=b can be calculated as the integral from a to b of the function f(x) dx. This is equal to the antiderivative F(x) evaluated from b to a. The area under a curve can also be estimated using rectangles, and as the width of the rectangles approaches 0, the estimate becomes the exact area. The derivative of the area function A(x) gives the equation of the curve f(x). Examples are given to calculate the exact area under curves.
27. As the widths decrease, the estimate becomes more accurate, lets
investigate one of these rectangles.
