Why Is Integration Antiderivative?


Open in App
Solution

Derivative: A function's rate of change with respect to a variable is called the derivative.

Integration: The term "integration" refers to the process of bringing disparate parts together to form a whole. Integration is used to determine a function whose differential is known.

Integration is the opposite procedure of the derivative.
Let us take an example
Let y=sinx

Then derivative of y=ddxy

=ddx(sinx)=cosx

And, integration of cosx

∫cosxdx=sinx+c, where c is the constant of integration, and c=0 if the main function does not have any constant term.
