Wait before we do that can you help me with math pls i dont understand the equations
Ok sure what kind of help do you need
I need help with integral calculus
Pls be patient with me tho
So like...the integral calculus is like a fancy word for figuring out the area under curves and stuff. Do you know anything about it?
Bro I never learned that I’m still in high school
Oof... I see... Well, lucky for you, I happen to be really good at this. Let me explain it to you like you're five, okay?
So imagine there's a curve on a piece of paper. The curve could be any shape - a smile, a frown, a heart, whatever! Now, let's say we want to find the area under that curve. How would we do that?
Is it something like a parabola?
Yes! It can be any shape, but we usually work with simple shapes like parabolas, triangles, and circles. So, do you remember how to find the area of those shapes?
a rectangle. Can you tell me the formula for finding the area of a rectangle?
That's right! The area of a rectangle is equal to its length times its width. So if you have a rectangle with a length of 5cm and a width of 3cm, the area would be 15 square centimeters. Now, let's use that formula to find the area under our curve.
How would that help us though?
Here's the thing, if we can break our curve into smaller rectangles, we can find the area under each rectangle and then add them all up to get the total area. Does that make sense?
And which part don't you understand? Don't worry, we'll take it one step at a time. Let's start by breaking our curve into two rectangles.
the curved part on the left and the curved part on the right. Each of these parts is roughly shaped like a rectangle. Can you draw that on a piece of paper?
Great job! Now, let's label the length and width of each rectangle. Remember, the width is the distance from the y-axis to the edge of the rectangle, and the length is the distance along the x-axis. Can you do that?
