The points at which the function is not precisely defined: x1=0
The points of intersection with the X-axis coordinate
Graph of the function intersects the axis X at f = 0 so we need to solve the equation: atan(xx−1)=0 Solve this equation The points of intersection with the axis X:
The points of intersection with the Y axis coordinate
The graph crosses Y axis when x equals 0: substitute x = 0 to atan((x - 1*1)/x). atan(0(−1)1+0) The result: f(0)=⟨−2π,2π⟩ The point:
(0, AccumBounds(-pi/2, pi/2))
Extrema of the function
In order to find the extrema, we need to solve the equation dxdf(x)=0 (the derivative equals zero), and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function: dxdf(x)= the first derivative 1+x2(x−1)2x1−x2x−1=0 Solve this equation Solutions are not found, function may have no extrema
Inflection points
Let's find the inflection points, we'll need to solve the equation for this dx2d2f(x)=0 (the second derivative equals zero), the roots of this equation will be the inflection points for the specified function graph: dx2d2f(x)= the second derivative −x2⋅(1+x2(x−1)2)2⋅(1−xx−1)(1+x(1+x2(x−1)2)(1−xx−1)(x−1))=0 Solve this equation The roots of this equation x1=21 You also need to calculate the limits of y '' for arguments seeking to indeterminate points of a function: Points where there is an indetermination: x1=0
x→0−lim−x2⋅(1+x2(x−1)2)2⋅(1−xx−1)(1+x(1+x2(x−1)2)(1−xx−1)(x−1))=2 Let's take the limit x→0+lim−x2⋅(1+x2(x−1)2)2⋅(1−xx−1)(1+x(1+x2(x−1)2)(1−xx−1)(x−1))=2 Let's take the limit - limits are equal, then skip the corresponding point
Сonvexity and concavity intervals: Let’s find the intervals where the function is convex or concave, for this look at the behaviour of the function at the inflection points: Concave at the intervals (−∞,21] Convex at the intervals [21,∞)
Vertical asymptotes
Have: x1=0
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo x→−∞limatan(xx−1)=x→−∞limatan(xx−1) Let's take the limit so, equation of the horizontal asymptote on the left: y=x→−∞limatan(xx−1) x→∞limatan(xx−1)=x→∞limatan(xx−1) Let's take the limit so, equation of the horizontal asymptote on the right: y=x→∞limatan(xx−1)
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of atan((x - 1*1)/x), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo x→−∞lim(xatan(xx−1))=x→−∞lim(xatan(xx−1)) Let's take the limit so, inclined asymptote equation on the left: y=xx→−∞lim(xatan(xx−1)) x→∞lim(xatan(xx−1))=x→∞lim(xatan(xx−1)) Let's take the limit so, inclined asymptote equation on the right: y=xx→∞lim(xatan(xx−1))
Even and odd functions
Let's check, whether the function even or odd by using relations f = f(-x) и f = -f(-x). So, check: atan(xx−1)=−atan(x−x−1) - No atan(xx−1)=atan(x−x−1) - No so, the function not is neither even, nor odd
