k Reading Coordinates on a Graph Line

Trace lets you move a pointer along a graph and read out coordinates on the display.

1. From the Main Menu, enter the Graph mode.

2. Draw the graph.

3. Press

!1(TRACE), and a pointer appears in the center of the graph.*

4. Use

d and e to move the pointer along the graph to

the point at which you want to display the coordinates.

When there are multiple graphs on the display, press

f and c to move between them along the

x

-axis of

the current pointer location.

• At this time, pointer coordinate values appear at the bottom of the screen and to the right

(or left) of the pointer. Also, supplementary lines appear from the pointer to the

x

-axis and

y

-axis.

• You can hide the supplementary lines by pressing

!c. To redisplay hidden lines,

press

!f.

5. You can also move the pointer by pressing

v to display the pop-up window, and then

inputting an

x

value.

The pop-up window appears even when you input an

x

value directly.

To exit a trace operation, press

!1(TRACE).

The pointer is not visible on the graph when it is located at a point outside the graph display

area or when an error of no value occurs.

• You can turn off display of the coordinates at the pointer location by specifying “Off” for the

“Coord” item on the Setup screen.

• The following shows how coordinates are displayed for each function type.
