Geometric Basis of Calculus

Kaustav Sen

This article mainly determines the two bases of calculus namely, differential calculus and integral calculus from the geometric background. Differentiation is performed by calculating the slope of a tangent line drawn graphically to a function. Definite integration of a function, on the other hand, can be measured by calculating the area under the graph of a function by comparing this area to a hypersolid's content using Cavalieri's principle.
