Let  f (x)  be a continuous function on the interval  [a, b].
Assume that a function     has a continuous derivative on the interval   .
If    and   , then

.


Proof. Let  f (x) be a primitive of   f (x) on the interval [a, b].

Applying Fundamental Theorem 2 of calculus and in view of the properties of primitives, we have


Note that it is not necessary to come back to the initial variable.
