Fundamental Theorem of Calculus - Proof of The Corollary

Proof of The Corollary

Suppose F is an antiderivative of f, with f continuous on . Let

.

By the first part of the theorem, we know G is also an antiderivative of f. It follows by the mean value theorem that there is a number c such that G(x) = F(x) + c, for all x in . Letting x = a, we have

which means c = − F(a). In other words G(x) = F(x) − F(a), and so

Famous quotes containing the words proof of the, proof of and/or proof:

    The fact that several men were able to become infatuated with that latrine is truly the proof of the decline of the men of this century.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    If we view our children as stupid, naughty, disturbed, or guilty of their misdeeds, they will learn to behold themselves as foolish, faulty, or shameful specimens of humanity. They will regard us as judges from whom they wish to hide, and they will interpret everything we say as further proof of their unworthiness. If we view them as innocent, or at least merely ignorant, they will gain understanding from their experiences, and they will continue to regard us as wise partners.
    Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)

    The thing with Catholicism, the same as all religions, is that it teaches what should be, which seems rather incorrect. This is “what should be.” Now, if you’re taught to live up to a “what should be” that never existed—only an occult superstition, no proof of this “should be”Mthen you can sit on a jury and indict easily, you can cast the first stone, you can burn Adolf Eichmann, like that!
    Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)
