    Exercise \(\PageIndex{1}\)

    1. How are the definite and indefinite integrals related?

    2. What constants of integration is most commonly used when evaluating definite integrals?

    3. T/F: If \(f\) is a continuous function, then \(F(x) =\int_a^x f(t)\,dt\) is also a continuous function.

    4. The definite integral can be used to find "the area under a curve." Give two other uses for definite integrals.
