Integration

Integration is a simple way of "quickly" adding. In cases where you have a curve under a graph for example a velocity-time graph, the area under the curve will give you the distance. If you know the equation of the curve, integrating it will allow you to find the distance. Integration is also the opposite of differentiation.

What is the product rule and when do you use it?


How do you differentiate by first principles?


The line L1 has vector equation,  L1 = (  6, 1 ,-1  ) + λ ( 2, 1, 0). The line L2 passes through the points (2, 3, −1) and (4, −1, 1). i) find vector equation of L2 ii)show L2 and L1 are perpendicular.


I'm confused about differentiation and integration, could you explain these to me?
