5.3: The Fundamental Theorem of Calculus
1. In the first worksheet problem for Section 5.1 you used rectangles to estimate the area
under the curve y = 4 − x2 over the interval [0, 2]. Use the Fundamental Theorem of
Calculus to compute the exact area and then determine if the midpoint approximation
from problem 1c in worksheet 5.1 is an underestimate or an overestimate of that area.
2. Use Part 1 of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus to compute f 0 (x) in each case below.

4. (a) Let A0 (x) = (1 − t ) dt, A1 (x) = (1 − t ) dt, and A2 (x) = (1 − t2 ) dt.

Compute these explicitly in terms of x using Part 2 of the Fundamental Theorem
of Calculus.
(b) Over the interval [0, 2], use your answers in part (a) to sketch the graphs of y =
A0 (x), y = A1 (x), and y = A2 (x) on the same set of axes.
(c) How are the three graphs in part (a) related to each other? In particular, what
does Part 1 of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus tell you about the graphs in
part (a)?
(d) On a graph of y = 1 − t2 , for 0 ≤ t ≤ 2, shade the region with signed area A0 (1.5).
Indicate with + and − which area counts positively and which negatively.
