Simillarities between Integration and Differentiation

Both Differentiation and Integration Distribute over Addition and Subtraction, d/dx( u v ) = [ d/dx( u ) ] [ d/dx( v ) ]
and ( u v ) dx = ( u dx ) ( v dx ).

 In both processes, a Multiplying Constant can be taken out of the operator symbol, if C is a constant, then, d/dx( C u ) = C d/dx( u ), and ( C u ) dx = C u dx.

Comparison between Integration and Differentiation

 These two terms are related to a branch of Basic Mathematics which is called as Calculus. Integration is Adding up while Differentiation is dividing.

Integration tells about the distance travelled by the function while differentiation tells about the speed of the function.

Differentiation makes large distance to very small fractions while Integration makes the little fractions to large.

 These both are opposite of each other. Differentiation of cos is sin Integration of cos is sin These are opposites terms of each other. If we take the differentiation of a function, then take the integration of the answer, we will complete it with the function again. According to the definition, the differentiation of a function is the slope of a function while the integration is the area between the function and the x-axis.

 Differentiation finding the rate of change of the incline/grade of any function

Integration area which is under the curve of function with respect to the x axis.

 Integration is the reverse of differentiation:

In one way it can be taken as differentiation in reverse.

Lets take a example: Suppose we will have to differentiate the function y = x4 . We obtain dy/dx = 4x3. In Integration we reverse this process and we can say that the integration of 4x3 is x4.

 In simple way we can say that differentiation is applied to determine the rates of change of variables and integration is used to determine lengths, volumes and areas.

 Let take a example z = 3x2 +6x Now means of differentiation is (dy/dx) rate of change of z for a very minute change of x. We can do differentiation in many steps: Firstly we multiply the variable 3 by power 2 and power 2 will be decreased by one. It will be resulted in 6x. In case of 6x, 6 will be multiplied by power 1 and power 1 will be decreased by one. It will be resulted in 6 The differentiation of z = 3x2 +6x is dz /dx =6x + 6

 Again suppose: dy/dx = 6x + 6 Now we are to determine the function from which this differentiation has been derived. The following process by which we can go back to that function is known as the integration. Integration of 6x+6

 We can do integration in many steps: Firstly we increase the power of variable by one and divide this variable by increased power. In case of 6x power of x is given as one. We will increase it by one that will be 2 and after dividing by 2 it will result in 6x. In case of 6 the power of x is 0. We will increase it by one that will be 1 and after dividing by 1 it will result in 3x2.

Then integration of 6x+6 will be as z = 3x2 +6x

 So, in this way we find difference between integration and differentiation.
