Applications of Integrals

There is a number of methods of calculations among which are functions,

differentiation, and integration. Applications of Integrals are applied in
various fields like Mathematics, Science, and Engineering. Further, for
the calculation of areas or irregular shapes in a two-dimensional space,
we use majorly integrals formulas.
