Limits of Area and Integration (10.2.2)

Question 1

• To find the area of a region bounded by the graphs of two functions, find the limits of integration by determining where the graphs intersect. Then take the definite integral of the difference of the two functions along that interval.

Area = lim(B, A) [f(x)-g(x)]dx
