Summary of FCN operations

Operation

Description

 

 

Root

Select Root to find the root of the

 

current function nearest to the tracing

 

cursor. If no root is found, but only an

 

extremum, then the result is labeled

 

Extremum instead of Root. The cursor

 

is moved to the root value on the x-axis

 

and the resulting x-value is saved in a

 

variable named Root.

Extremum

Select Extremum to find the maximum

 

or minimum of the current function

 

nearest to the tracing cursor. The cursor

 

moves to the extremum and the

 

coordinate values are displayed. The

 

resulting x-value is saved in a variable

 

named Extremum.

Slope

Select Slope to find the numeric

 

derivative of the current function at the

 

current position of the tracing cursor. The

 

result is saved in a variable named

 

Slope.

Signed area

Select Signed area to find the

 

numeric integral. (If there are two or

 

more expressions checkmarked, then

 

you will be asked to choose the second

 

expression from a list that includes the x-

 

axis.) Select a starting point and an

 

ending point. The result is saved in a

 

variable named SignedArea.

Intersec-

Select Intersection to find the

tion

intersection of the graph you are

 

currently tracing and another graph.

 

You need to have at least two selected

 

expressions in Symbolic view. Finds the

 

intersection closest to the tracing cursor.

 

Displays the coordinate values and

 

moves the cursor to the intersection. The

 

resulting x-value is saved in a variable

 

named Isect.
