The antiderivative of $g’(x)$ with respect to $dx$ is found through the process of integration, and is given by:

∫ g’(x) \ dx = g(x) + C, \ where \ C \ is \ the \ constant \ of \ integration.

The two types of integrals include:

• Indefinite Integrals
• Definite Integrals

Definite Integral: An integral with specified upper and lower limits, without the constant of integration.

Indefinite integral: An integral without limits and an arbitrary constant added.

This article provides a comprehensive overview of standard integrals, their properties, important formulas, and examples of integration, which will help students gain a deeper understanding of the topic.
