Integration Assignment
You have been hired to write an introduction to the section on Integration for the Project
Mathematics 1B Text Book.
AVOID THE USE OF CALCULATORS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, THAT IS, USE
NUMBERS THAT ARE SMALL AND EASY TO DO CALCULATIONS WITH
MANUALLY.
QUESTION 1 30 marks
Give a brief account of the history of integration. Give answers to at least these questions: Who
invented it? When? What were they solving? How did the theorems of calculus solve their
problem? How many theorems of calculus are there? You must research this and it must be fully
referenced.
QUESTION 2 50 marks
Choose any 3D irregular shape you like, (eg your backpack, your shoe) and explain how you
would calculate its surface area and its volume based on your explanation of the theorems of
calculus in question 1. Make sure you include clear drawings of this shape (you may include
pictures too), make sure your explanations are clear and based on integration and geometry. Use
simple values to make these calculations and avoid the use of calculators as much as possible.
You should not need any references for this section but if you borrow any material from anyone,
please reference it appropriately.
QUESTION 3 20 marks
Explain one of the advanced methods for solving indefinite integrals analytically. Choose
between: completing the square, partial fraction decomposition and integration by parts. Use
your own examples in your explanation, that is, choose your own values for your functions.
Make sure you show the step-by-step calculations and you explain them thoroughly. As with the
previous question, your examples should be your own but the theoretical part of your question
must be fully referenced.





Performance Objectives:
Know:
Why is integration needed
How to solve integrals using advanced methods of integration
How to calculate areas and volumes
