Shading Above and Below
When you select é or ê for two or more functions, the TI-84 Plus rotates through four shading
patterns.
Vertical lines shade the first function with a é or ê graph style.
•
•
Horizontal lines shade the second.
•
Negatively sloping diagonal lines shade the third.
•
Positively sloping diagonal lines shade the fourth.
The rotation returns to vertical lines for the fifth é or ê function, repeating the order described

above.
When shaded areas intersect, the patterns overlap.
When é or ê is selected for a Y= function that graphs a family of curves, such as
Note:
the four shading patterns rotate for each member of the family of curves.
