Indefinite Integral

An indefinite integral is integration without limits, giving a general family of functions rather than a single number. It always includes an arbitrary constant cc, for example 2xdx=x2+c\int 2x\,dx=x^{2}+c.

The constant appears because differentiating any constant gives zero, so it cannot be recovered.

Meaning

An indefinite integral is integration without limits, giving a general family of functions rather than a single number. It always includes an arbitrary constant cc, for example 2xdx=x2+c\int 2x\,dx=x^{2}+c.

The constant appears because differentiating any constant gives zero, so it cannot be recovered.

Where it appears in Add Math

You meet Indefinite Integral in the Integration chapter of SPM Additional Mathematics. Knowing the term precisely matters in the exam: questions often hinge on reading a keyword correctly, and because SPM marking is analytic, using the right definition in your working helps secure method marks.

Our teachers make sure a student can not only recite what Indefinite Integral means but use it fluently in a full solution.

The term in three languages

Because the SPM Add Math paper is bilingual (BM/EN), it helps to know this term in each language: Indefinite Integral (EN) · Kamiran Tak Tentu (BM) · 不定积分 (中文)
