We use LH
opitals rule to get rid of the uncertainty and we get 1. The
area we want to calculate is under the x-axis so we have to take the absolute
value of our answer. Hence the area between the function lnx and the x-axis
is 1 unit square.
Improper integrals is a pretty important yet an easily understandable
concept. On this example we faced an integral that can be evaluated. On
the next chapter we are going to talk about integrals which dont converge
so dont have a real value.
