There's a typical picture of FTC1 that you see in places like Pugh's analysis book or 3Blue1Brown's video on FTC. This explanation makes sense, but I want point out a few different ways of thinking about the picture. One is, like the 3b1b video says, to look at the incremental area. You get ΔA(x)≈f(x)Δx. So then you divide by Δx and take the limit as Δx→0 and get A′(x)=limΔx→0ΔA(x)Δx=f(x).
