Chapter 5: Function Graphing
In the example, ¾ (shade
above) is selected for
. All
y2
window variables are set to
the default values (page 82).
If you assign ¾ or ¿ to a
function that graphs a family
of curves (page 86), the
same pattern rotation applies
to the members of the family
of curves.

Using Shading Patterns to Differentiate Functions

When you select ¾ (shade above) or ¿ (shade below) for more than one function, the TI-86
rotates through a series of four shading patterns.
First shaded function: vertical lines
Second shaded function: horizontal lines
Third shaded function: negatively sloping diagonal lines
Fourth shaded function: positively sloping diagonal lines
The rotation returns to vertical lines for the fifth shaded function and repeats the order.
