Integration with the TI-89
Z   b
To find the value of           f (x) dx using the TI-89, first go to F3: Calc and select
                        a
     R
2:       ( integrate Complete the command line in the following form:
                                             R
                                                 (f(x), x, a, b)
The value will be found exactly, if possible; otherwise, an approximation method will be
used. If the limits a and b are left out of the command, the TI-89 will find the expression
for the anti-derivative of f , if possible.
Example: To find the area under one arch of the curve y = sin(x2 ) enter
                                         (sin(x2 ), x, 0, π ∧ (1/2))
                                     R
The result is .894831.
Exercise: Find the volume generated if the region indicated in the example is revolved
