Antiderivatives: Rules, Formulas, and Examples

Discover how to reverse differentiation to find antiderivatives, master the power rule and trig rules, and practice with worked examples.


What You'll Learn

Define an antiderivative as a function whose derivative gives back the original function.
Apply the power rule to find antiderivatives of the form \(x^n\) for any exponent except negative one.
Recognize that every antiderivative belongs to a family of functions differing only by a constant \(C\).
Identify the antiderivative of \(\frac{1}{x}\) as \(\ln|x| + C\), a special case outside the power rule.
Recall the antiderivatives of sine, cosine, and tangent using the trig derivative rules in reverse.
Check any antiderivative answer by differentiating it and confirming you recover the original function.

What You'll Practice

1

Finding antiderivatives of power functions with positive and negative exponents

2

Evaluating indefinite integrals of rational expressions by breaking them into simpler terms

3

Computing antiderivatives of trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions

4

Solving antiderivatives involving exponential functions with various bases

5

Simplifying expressions before integration and verifying answers by differentiation

Why This Matters

Antiderivatives are the foundation of integral calculus, which you'll use to calculate areas, volumes, work, and motion problems throughout higher math and physics. Mastering antiderivatives now prepares you for definite integrals, differential equations, and countless applications in engineering and science.
