\
A function is continuous at
, if
then it should satisfy three conditions :
(1) is defined.
(2) exists.
(3) .
If does not satisfies any of these three conditions, then
is said to be discontinuous.
\
(a)
\The function is discontinuous at because the function has a hole at
.
Therefore is not defined.
The function is discontinuous at because limit does not exist at
.
does not exist.
The function is discontinuous at because limit does not exist
.
does not exist.
The function is discontinuous at because limit does not exist
.
does not exist.
\
(b)
\The function has a hole at .
Therefore the function is neither continuous from left side nor from the right side.
\The solid dot indicates the value of the function.
\The function is continuous from left side at .
.
The function is continuous from right side at .
.
The function is continuous from right side at .
.
\
(a) The function is discontinuous at .
(b)
\The function is neither continuous from left side nor from the right side at .
The function is continuous from left side at .
The function is continuous from right side at .
The function is continuous from right side at .
