Sketch Function
The sketch function lets you draw lines and graphs on an existing
graph.
• Note that Sketch function operation in the STAT, GRAPH, TA-
BLE, RECUR and CONICS Modes is different from Sketch func-
tion operation in the RUN and PRGM Modes.

10-2 Graphing with the Sketch Function
The sketch function lets you draw lines and plot points on a graph that is already on
the screen.
All the examples in this section that show operations in the STAT, GRAPH, TABLE,
RECUR, and CONICS Modes are based on the assumption that the following func-
tion has already been graphed in the GRAPH Mode.
Memory Area Y1 = x(x+ 2)(x– 2)
The following are the View Window parameters used when drawing the graph.
Xmin = –5 Ymin = –5
Xmax = 5 Ymax = 5
Xscale = 1 Yscale = 1
