1. Prove that the function f is defined on [a, b] by f (x) = x, is integrable on [a, b] by showing that
Rb R −b Rb
−a
f = a f. Evaluate a f.
2. A function defined on [0, 1] by 
1, if x is rational,
f (x) =
0, if x is irrational.
Then show that f is not integrable on [0, 1].
3. (a) Using only the definition of integral, show that
  
sin 1 , if x is irrational, x ∈ [0, 1],
f (x) = x
0, otherwise, x ∈ [0, 1].

is not Riemann integrable.

(c) Let f (x) = ex for all x ∈ [a, b]. Show that f is Riemann integrable and find a
ex dx.
4. Let f : [a, b] → R and g : [a, b] → R be both integrable on [a,b] and there exist a positive real number
k such that g(x) ≥ k for all x ∈ [a, b]. Then f/g is integrable on [a,b].

6. A function f is continuous on [a,b] and f (x) ≥ 0 on [a,b]. If a
