GRAPH FUNCTIONS

The graphing capabilities of this calculator makes it possible to draw complex graphs using either rectangular coordinates (horizontal axis: x ; vertical axis: y) or polar coordinates (angle: θ ; distance from origin: r).

Example 1: To graph Y = X(X + 1)(X – 2)

1.Press m.

2.Use d, e, f, and cto highlight GRAPH, and then press w.

3.Input the formula.

v(v+b) (v-c)w

4. Press 6(DRAW) or wto draw the graph.

Example 2: To determine the roots of Y = X(X + 1)(X – 2)

1. Press !5(G-Solv).
