Integration of the Quadratic Function and Generalization
Mitsuma, Kunio
MathAMATYC Educator, v2 n2 p38-40 Feb 2011
We will first recall useful formulas in integration that simplify the calculation of certain definite integrals with the quadratic function. A main formula relies only on the coefficients of the function. We will then explore a geometric proof of one of these formulas. Finally, we will extend the formulas to more general cases. (Contains 3 figures.)
