These terms have something to do with our topic for

today. An interval is measured in terms of numbers. It
includes all the numbers that come between two
particular numbers. This range includes all the real
numbers between those two numbers.
Now, we are going to determine if the function is
continuous or discontinuous on an interval.
Lesson Proper
CONTINUITY ON AN INTERVAL
A function can be continuous on an interval. This
simply means that it is continuous at every point on the
interval. Equivalently, if we are able to draw the entire
graph of the function on an interval without lifting our
tracing pen, or without being interrupted by a hole in the

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
middle of the graph, then we can conclude that the
function is continuous on that interval.
We begin our discussion with two concepts which are
important in determining whether a function is
continuous at the endpoints of closed intervals.
One-Sided Continuity
1. A function f is said to be continuous
from the left at x=c if
f ( c ) = lim ¿
−¿
x → c f ( x)¿
2. A function f is said to be continuous
from the right at x=c if
f ( c ) = lim ¿
+¿
x → c f (x)¿
Here are known facts on continuities of functions on

intervals.
Continuity of Polynomial, Absolute Value, Rational
and Square Root Functions
3. Polynomial functions are continuous

everywhere. `
4. The absolute value function
f ( x )=¿ x ∨¿ is continuous everywhere.
5. Rational functions are continuous on
their respective domains.
6. The square root function f ( x )= √ x is
continuous on [0,∞ ¿.
We first look at graphs of functions to illustrate

continuity on an interval.
Example 1
Using the given graph, determine if the function f is
continuous on the following intervals:
1. (-1,1)
2. (-∞ ,0)

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
3. (0, ∞ )
Solution: Remember that when we say “trace from the

right side of x=c ”, we are tracing not from x=c on the
x-axis, but from the point (c , f ( c ) ) along the graph.
1. We can trace the graph from the right

side of x=−1 to the left side of x=1
without lifting the pen we are using.
Hence, we can say that the function f is
continuous on the interval (-1,1).
2. If we trace the graph from any
negatively large number up to the left
side of 0, we will not lift our pen and
so, f is continuous on (-∞ , 0 ¿.
3. For the interval (0, +∞ ), we trace the
graph from the right side of 0 to any
large number and find that we will not
lift our pen. Thus, the function f is
continuous on (0, +∞ ).
Example 2
Using the given graph, determine if the function f is

continuous on the following intervals:
4. (-1,1)
5. [0.5,2]
Solution: Because we are already given the graph of h ,
we characterize the continuity of h by the possibility of
tracing the graph without lifting the pen.
6. If we trace the graph of the function h
from the right side of x=−1 to the left
side of x=1, we will be interrupted by
a hole when we reach x=0. We are
forced to lift our pen just before we
reach x=0 to indicate that h is not
defined at x=0 and continue tracing

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
again starting from the right of x=0.
Therefore, we are not able to trace the
graph of h on (-1,1) without lifting our
pen. Thus, the function h is not
continuous on (-1,1).
7. For the interval [0.5,2], if we trace the
graph from x=0.5 to x=2 , we do not
have to lift the pen at all. Thus, the
function h is continuous on [0.5,2].
A. Activity
Using the graph of the function h , determine if
the function is continuous on the following
interval.

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
1. (-3,0)
2. [-2,2]
3. (2, +∞ )
4. (3,4)
5. (-∞ ,0]
B. Analysis Now, if a function is given without its

corresponding graph, we must find other means to
determine if the function is continuous or not on an
interval. Here are definitions that will help us:
Example 3: Determine the largest interval over which
the function of f ( x )= √ x +2 is continuous.

Solution: Observe that the function f ( x )= √ x +2
Has function values only if x +2≥ 0 , that is, if
x ∈ [ −2 ,+ ∞ ) . For all c ∈ [ −2 ,+∞ ),
f ( c ) =√ c+ 2=lim √ x +2
x →c
Moreover, f is continuous from the right at -2 because

f (−2 )=0= lim ¿
+¿
x →−2 √ x+2 ¿
Therefore, for all x ∈ [ −2 ,+ ∞ ), the function

f ( x )= √ x +2 is continuous.
Example 4: Determine the largest interval in which

4 3
f ( x )=x −x +1 is continuous.
Solution: Since f is a polynomial function, then it is
continuous everywhere. Hence, f is continuous on R .
Example 5: Determine the largest interval where

h ( x )=√ x 2+1 is continuous.
Solution: Since x 2+ 1≥ 0, for any x ∈ R, h is defined on
R. Moreover, for any c ∈ R .
h ( c )= √ c 2 +1=lim h(x )
x→c

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
Hence, h is continuous on R.
Example 6: Consider the function given by

f ( x )=
{√xx+−1if1if xx<≥44
Solution: We have the following:
6. For x <4 , f ( x )=x−1 is a polynomial
function and therefore, continuous
everywhere. Thus, f is continuous on (-
∞ , 4 ).
7. For x >4 , f ( x )=√ x+1 is always
defined. Moreover,
f ( a )=√ a+ 1=lim f ( x ) , for any a> 4 .
x→ a
Thus, f ( x ) is continuous for all x >4 .
Take note:
TYPES OF DISCONTINUITY
8. Jump Discontinuity- Hole/Hollow ,
Dot/Point or there’s a gap
9. Removable Discontinuity –
Hole/Hollow, Dot/Point/ there’s a gap.
But it can be continuous by using the 3
steps.
C. Abstraction

lesson.
