How to trace curve ?
Follow the following points :
• Consider ƒ(x) itself :
(a) Find its domain.
(b) Identify its symmetry (even/odd, etc.) and periodicity properties.
1
(c) Note its behaviour as x ® ± ¥ and near singular points i.e. points where ƒ(x) is undefined, e.g. in ,
x -2
x = 2 is a singular point.
(d) If it is easy to do, locate the roots of ƒ(x) and identify regions of common sign, i.e., regions where
ƒ(x) > 0 and regions where ƒ(x) < 0.
• Consider the first derivative of ƒ(x), namely ƒ'(x) :
(a) Identify important points where ƒ'(x) = 0 or ƒ'(x) is undefined.
(b) Find regions of common sign of ƒ'(x) to determine where ƒ(x) is increasing or decreasing. Thus determine
the nature of the important points of ƒ, i.e., determine whether such a point is a local maximum, local
minimum, inflection point, cusp, etc.
(c) use ƒ'(x) to check properties of ƒ(x) drawn from considering ƒ(x) itself. For example, between two roots
of ƒ(x), x1 < x2, there must be a critical point a, x1 < a < x2, where ƒ'(a) = 0 (stationary point) or ƒ'(a)
fails to exist.
• Consider the second derivative of ƒ(x), namely ƒ"(x) (not always essential) :
(a) identify important points where ƒ"(x) = 0 or ƒ"(x) is undefined.
(b) Find regions of common sign of ƒ"(x) to determine the concavity of ƒ(x). Determine inflection points of
ƒ(x).
(c) use ƒ"(x) to check conclusions about ƒ(x) drawn from considering ƒ'(x). For example, if 'c' is such that
ƒ'(c) = 0, ƒ"(c) < 0, then x = c is a point of local maximum of ƒ(x).
Now sketch the graph of ƒ(x).
1. ƒ(x) = x , g(x) = x2 + 1, h(x) = (ƒog)(x).
(a) Find the domain and range of h.
(b) Find h'(x) and h"(x).
(c) Where does h have a relative minimum ? Relative maximum ?
(d) Where is h concave up ? Concave down ?
(e) Sketch the graph of h.
2. Sketch the graph of ƒ(x) = x3 – 3x2, indicating the maxima, the minima, the inflection points, and the
concavity.
3. For the function defined by y = 3x5 – 5x3 find :
(a) All critical points, relative maxima, relative minima.
(b) Where the function is increasing, decreasing.
(c) Inflection points, if any.
(d) Where the function is concave up, concave down.
(e) Draw the graph of y = 3x5 – 5x3.
