Mean Value Theorem for Integrals If f(x)f(x) is continuous over an interval [a,b],[a,b], then there is at least one point c[a,b]c[a,b] such that f(c)=1baabf(x)dx.f(c)=1baabf(x)dx.
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part 1 If f(x)f(x) is continuous over an interval [a,b],[a,b], and the function F(x)F(x) is defined by F(x)=axf(t)dt,F(x)=axf(t)dt, then F(x)=f(x).F(x)=f(x).
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part 2 If f is continuous over the interval [a,b][a,b] and F(x)F(x) is any antiderivative of f(x),f(x), then abf(x)dx=F(b)F(a).abf(x)dx=F(b)F(a).
