A classroom integral: ∫₀¹ x² dx = ?
1/3
1
0
1/2
Explanation:
To evaluate the definite integral ∫₀¹ x² dx, use the power rule for integration. The antiderivative of x² is (x³)/3. Substitute the upper and lower limits: [(1³)/3] − [(0³)/3] = 1/3 − 0 = 1/3. This represents the exact area under the curve y = x² between x = 0 and x = 1.
Correct Answer:
1/3
Volume by disks: y = x2, rotate about x-axis from 0 to 1?

2π/5

0
1
∞
Does not exist
Explanation
The real-valued function f(x) = √x is defined only for x ≥ 0. Approaching 0 from the left means considering values x < 0, where f(x) is not defined in the real numbers. Because there are no function values for x < 0, the left-hand limit cannot be evaluated and therefore does not exist as a real limit.
Correct Answer
Does not exist

A teacher demonstrates squeeze theorem: if x2 ≤ sinx/x ≤ 1 near 0, what is limx→0sin x/x?
0
1
∞
-1
Explanation:
By the squeeze theorem, if a function is "sandwiched" between two other functions that have the same limit at a point, then the function also approaches that limit. Here, as x → 0, x2→ 0 and the constant 1 is 1. The standard limit lim x→0 sinx/x is well-known to be 1. Therefore, despite the inequality given, the actual limit is determined by the behavior of sinx/x near 0.
