Improper Integrals
Infinite limits of integration
Definition Improper integrals are said to be
convergent if the limit is finite and that limit is the value of the improper integral. divergent if the limit does not exist.

Improper Integrals
Infinite limits of integration
Definition Improper integrals are said to be
convergent if the limit is finite and that limit is the value of the improper integral. divergent if the limit does not exist.
Each integral on the previous page is defined as a limit.
If the limit is finite we say the integral converges, while if the limit is infinite or does not exist, we say the integral diverges.
Convergence is good (means we can do the integral); divergence is bad (means we can't do the integral).

Example 1
Improper Integrals
Find (if it even converges)
e-x dx .
0
Solution:
b
b
e-x dx = lim e-x dx = lim - e-x
0
b 0
b
0
= lim -e-b + e0 = 0 + 1= 1.
b
So the integral converges and equals 1.

Example 2
Improper Integrals
Find (if it even converges)
-
1 1 + x2
dx .
Solution: By definition,
1
c1
1
- 1 + x 2 dx = - 1 + x 2 dx + c 1 + x 2 dx ,
where we get to pick whatever c we want. Let's pick c = 0.
0 -
1 1 + x2
dx
= lim b-
0
arctan(x) = lim [arctan(0) - arctan(b)] b b-
= 0 - lim arctan(b) =
