    Show that derivative and integration are opposite
    of each other. Thanks.

    Note: Use the simple function given below.

    f(x) = x^2

    f(x) = x^2 derivate
    f'(x) = 2 x integrate

    This is the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and to most people it is a very surprising result. It certainly seems strange that “to find the area under a curve” we do “the opposite of finding the gradient of the curve”.

    I didn't expect a complicated reply.

    It's calculus but I wanted to learn at least this much of the course. I do miss calculus 1.
