Do Definite Integrals Have C?

Indefinite integrals always require us to put a constant of integration “+C” at the end, while definite integrals do not require a “+C”.

Do you need to add C for definite integrals?

5 Answers. For any C, f(x)+C is an antiderivative of f′(x). These are two different things, so there is no reason to include C in a definite integral.

Do all integrals have +C?

This is a simple integral, and as you all know, the answer to an integral will always have a '+C' at the end, the constant of integration.
