Cookies and Pi

Closure Activity: Explain to your neighbor how we used the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus today in class.  Be specific about each use of the two parts of the FTC.

I want my students to understand the two parts of the FTC informally:

1) Derivatives and integrals “undo” each other

2) Definite integrals can be evaluated by computing the difference between the integrated function evaluated at the upper and lower limits of integration. 

Our work with variable limits of integration, including on the warm-up, graphically with the Trace Area Under Curve v1 applet, and with the Cookies and Pi applet, rely heavily on part 2 of the FTC but obviously we cannot exclude the relevance of part #1 either.
