Ch 32: ORELA Math: Applications of Integration
About This Chapter
ORELA Math: Applications of Integration - Chapter Summary
This chapter aims to help you master the integration applications you'll likely find on the ORELA Math certification assessment. As you work through the entertaining video lessons and companion quizzes in this chapter, you will review:
- Applications in dynamic motion
- Calculating volumes with single integrals
- Using integration to find revolution volume
The self-assessment quizzes allow you to practice the techniques presented in this chapter and assess your exam readiness. Use the video transcript in each lesson to locate key information and get additional review.

1. Integration and Dynamic Motion
This lesson uses driving to demonstrate how graphing can help you use calculus to figure out how fast you were going at a given time. Using this lesson, you can learn how to integrate your velocity to find your position.

2. How to Calculate Volumes Using Single Integrals
Ever wonder where the equation for the volume of a cone comes from? Or the equation for the volume of a sphere? In this lesson, learn how to use a slicing technique to find the volume of a region by solving a single integral.

3. How to Find Volumes of Revolution With Integration
Some shapes look the same as you rotate them, like the body of a football. In this lesson, learn how to find the volumes of shapes that have symmetry around an axis using the volume of revolution integration technique.
