8-6 Other Graphing Functions

The functions described in this section tell you how to read the
at a given point, and how to zoom in and zoom out on a graph.
k k k k k Connect Type and Plot Type Graphs (Draw Type)
P.6 You can use the Draw Type setting of the set-up screen to specify one of two graph
types.
k k k k k Trace
With trace, you can move a flashing pointer along a graph with the f, c, d, and
e cursor keys and obtain readouts of coordinates at each point. The following
shows the different types of coordinate readouts produced by trace.
u u u u u To use trace to read coordinates
• These functions can be used with rectangular coordinate, polar coordinate, para-
metric, X = constant, and inequality graphs only.
• Connect
Points are plotted and connected by lines to create a curve.
• Plot
Points are plotted without being connected.
• Rectangular Coordinate Graph
• Parametric Function Graph
• Inequality Graph
Example To determine the points of intersection for graphs produced by
the following functions:
