CHAPTER XII.

DEFINITE INTEGRALS.

252. WHEN the indefinite integral of a function is known, we can immediately obtain the value of the definite integral corresponding to any assigned limits of the variable. Sometimes however we are able by special methods to assign the value of a definite integral when we cannot express the indefinite integral in a finite form; sometimes without actually finding the value of a definite integral we can shew that it possesses important properties. In some cases in which the indefinite integral of a function can be found, the definite integral between certain limits may have a value which is worthy of notice, on account of the simple form in which it may be expressed. We shall in the present chapter give examples of these general statements.

253. Suppose f(x) and F(x) rational algebraical functions of x, and f(x) of lower dimensions than F(x), and suppose the equation F(x) = 0 to have no real roots; it is required to find the value of

It will be seen that under the above suppositions, the expression to be integrated never becomes infinite for real values of x.

Let a+B(-1) and a-B(-1) represent a pair of the imaginary roots of F(x)=0; then the corresponding quadratic
