Video Title: The Calculus Question That Stumps 99% of Students
Description: Many engineering students and calculus students fall for this classic integration trap. At first glance, the integral of 1/x^2 from -1 to 1 looks like a standard Power Rule problem, giving an answer of -2. But how can a positive function have a negative area?
In this video, I explain why the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus fails here, how to identify the singularity, and how to correctly solve this as an Improper Integral.
The Problem: Integral from -1 to 1 of 1/x^2 dx
