Fundamental Theorem of Line Integrals

DEFINITION 32 The gradient theorem, also known as the fundamental theorem of calculus for line integrals, says that a line integral through a gradient field (any irrotational vector field can be expressed as a gradient) can be evaluated by evaluating the original scalar field at the endpoints of the curve.

DEFINITION 33 To switch from F = grad( f ) to just f: We know F = < df/dx , df/dy, df/dz > f(x,y,z) = integral of df/dx + g(y,z) df/dy = dg/dy, so g(y,z) = integral of df/dy with respect to y Now f(x,y,z) = integral of df/dx + g(y,z) + h(z) df/dz = integral of dh/dz, so h(z) = integral of df/dz with respect to z Looks much simpler written on paper!
