computing the limit of an infinite sum is called evaluating the definite integral by first principle.
Very Important:

1. If f (x) dx = 0, then the equation f (x) = 0 has atleast one root in (a, b) provided f is continuous in (a, b).

Note that the converse is not true.
Consider the example: If 2a + 3b + 6c = 0 then the QE ax2 + bx + c = 0 must have a root in (0, 1)
