Example of Definite Integral

$\ds \int_0^2 x^2 \rd x = \dfrac 8 3$


Proof

\(\ds \int_0^2 x^2 \rd x\) \(=\) \(\ds \intlimits {\dfrac {x^3} 3} 0 2\) Primitive of Power
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \dfrac {2^3} 3 - \dfrac {0^3} 3\) Definition of Definite Integral
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \dfrac 8 3\) evaluating

$\blacksquare$
