LEARN · EXPLAIN · REVISE

Evaluate the signed integral.

Read the idea, work independently, then explain what changed.

2027 JM02 考試大綱 · 6. Basic calculus: integrals and area · PDF 2 / printed page 2

TOPIC 01

Integration, area and school extensions

Find antiderivatives, evaluate definite integrals and distinguish signed accumulation from geometric area.

Find antiderivatives, evaluate definite integrals and distinguish signed accumulation from geometric area.
Justify the method and check the conditions in a new situation.

Use one hint at a time. A correction explains what changed, not just the final answer.

01 / Foundation#Your turn

\int_{-7}^7x\,dx

An indefinite integral includes an arbitrary constant; split at sign changes when calculating area. Revolution volumes are a school extension (T06 PDF6–10).

Skills and prerequisite lessons

Working and explanation

BUILD THE REASONING

Hint 1

Write the defining equation, retain exclusions, and then solve or compare.

Hint 2

Use odd symmetry or the antiderivative.

Worked solution

The requested value is 0.

Checks and common pitfalls: The two signed contributions cancel.

Think first. Reveal a hint when the class is ready.
