Maharashtra State Board 12th Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Definite Integration Ex 4.1
I. Evaluate the following integrals as a limit of a sum.
Question 1.
 \(\int_{1}^{3}(3 x-4) \cdot d x\)
 Solution:
 Let f(x) = 3x – 4, for 1 ≤ x ≤ 3
 Divide the closed interval [1, 3] into n subintervals each of length h at the points
 1, 1 + h, 1 + 2h, 1 + rh, ….., 1 + nh = 3
 ∴ nh = 2
 ∴ h = \(\frac{2}{n}\) and as n → ∞, h → 0
 Here, a = 1
 ∴ f(a + rh) = f(1 + rh)
 = 3(1 + rh) – 4
 = 3rh – 1

Question 2.
 \(\int_{0}^{4} x^{2} d x\)
 Solution:
 Let f(x) = x2, for 0 ≤ x ≤ 4
 Divide the closed interval [0, 4] into n subintervals each of length h at the points
 0, 0 + h, 0 + 2h, ….., 0 + rh, ….., 0 + nh = 4
 i.e. 0, h, 2h, ….., rh, ….., nh = 4
 ∴ h = \(\frac{4}{n}\) as n → ∞, h → 0
 Here, a = 0
 
Question 3.
 \(\int_{0}^{2} e^{x} d x\)
 Solution:
 Let f(x) = ex, for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2
 Divide the closed interval [0, 2] into n equal subntervals each of length h at the points
 0, 0 + h, 0 + 2h, ….., 0 + rh, ….., 0 + nh = 2
 i.e. 0, h, 2h, ….., rh, ….., nh = 2
 ∴ h = \(\frac{2}{n}\) and as n → ∞, h → 0
 Here, a = 0

Question 4.
 \(\int_{0}^{2}\left(3 x^{2}-1\right) d x\)
 Solution:
 Let f(x) = 3x2 – 1, for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2
 Divide the closed interval [0, 2] into n subintervals each of length h at the points.
 0, 0 + h, 0 + 2h, ….., 0 + rh, ……, 0 + nh = 2
 i.e. 0, h, 2h, ….., rh, ….., nh = 2
 ∴ h = \(\frac{2}{n}\) and as n → ∞, h → 0
 Here, a = 0
 ∴ f(a + rh) = f(0 + rh)
 = f(rh)
 = 3(rh)2 – 1
 = 3r2h2 – 1

Question 5.
 \(\int_{1}^{3} x^{3} d x\)
 Solution:
 Let f(x) = x3, for 1 ≤ x ≤ 3.
 Divide the closed interval [1, 3] into n equal su bintervals each of length h at the points
 1, 1 + h, 1 + 2h, ……, 1 + rh, ……, 1 + nh = 3
 ∴ nh = 2
 ∴ h = \(\frac{2}{n}\) and as n → ∞, h → 0
 Here a = 1
