  1. Section 3.6 – Curve Sketching

  2. Guidelines for sketching a Curve The following checklist is intended as a guide to sketching a curve by hand without a calculator. Not every item is relevant to every function. But the guidelines provide all the information needed to make a sketch that displays the most important aspects of the function. • Domain • x and y-intercept(s) • Symmetry • Horizontal, Vertical, and Slant Asymptotes • Intervals of Increase or Decrease • Local Maximum and Minimum Values • Concavity and Points of Inflection Once you have completed the checklist, sketch the graph.

  3. Example 1 Without a calculator, sketch the graph of the function below by finding everything on the checklist (if it exists). • Domain • x and y-intercept(s) • Symmetry • Horizontal, Vertical, and Slant Asymptotes • Intervals of Increase or Decrease • Local Maximum and Minimum Values • Concavity and Points of Inflection Mr. Wells will approximate irrational numbers for you.

  4. Answer to Example 1 Even Function.

  5. Example 2 Without a calculator, sketch the graph of the function below by finding everything on the checklist (if it exists). • Domain • x and y-intercept(s) • Symmetry • Horizontal, Vertical, and Slant Asymptotes • Intervals of Increase or Decrease • Local Maximum and Minimum Values • Concavity and Points of Inflection Mr. Wells will approximate irrational numbers for you.

  6. Answer to Example 2 Inflection Points

  7. Example 3 Without a calculator, sketch the graph of the function below by finding everything on the checklist (if it exists). • Domain • x and y-intercept(s) • Symmetry • Horizontal, Vertical, and Slant Asymptotes • Intervals of Increase or Decrease • Local Maximum and Minimum Values • Concavity and Points of Inflection Mr. Wells will approximate irrational numbers for you.

  8. Answer to Example 3 y = x Odd Function.

  9. Example 4 Without a calculator, sketch the graph of the function below by finding everything on the checklist (if it exists). • Domain • x and y-intercept(s) • Symmetry • Horizontal, Vertical, and Slant Asymptotes • Intervals of Increase or Decrease • Local Maximum and Minimum Values • Concavity and Points of Inflection Mr. Wells will approximate irrational numbers for you.

  10. Answer to Example 4 Inflection Points

  11. Example 5 • Without a calculator, sketch the graph of the function below by finding everything on the checklist (if it exists). • Domain • x and y-intercept(s) • Symmetry • Horizontal, Vertical, and Slant Asymptotes • Intervals of Increase or Decrease • Local Maximum and Minimum Values • Concavity and Points of Inflection
