limit
(expression, var, point [,direction])*
Find the limit of
sin(3x) / x
as
x
approaches

) function.
taylor
(expression, var, order [,point])
Find a 6th order Taylor
polynomial for
sin(x)
with
respect to
x
.
Store the answer as a user-
defined function named
y1(x)
.
Then graph
sin(x)
and the Taylor
polynomial.
Graph sin(x):Graph y1(x)
Common Calculus Operations
This section gives examples for some of the functions
available from the
Calc
toolbar menu. For complete
information about any calculus function, refer to Appendix A.
Integrating and
Differentiating
Note:
You can integrate an
expression only; you can
differentiate an expression,
list, or matrix.
Finding a Limit
Note:
You can find a limit
for an expression, list, or
matrix.
Finding a Taylor
Polynomial
Important:
Degree-mode
scaling by
p
/180 may cause
calculus application results
to appear in a different form.
lets you specify limits or a
constant of integration
To get d, use

Do not simply type the letter D
on the keyboard.
negative = from left
positive = from right
omitted or 0 = both
if omitted, expansion point is 0
