Expert Solution
Step 1: Definition of singular and critical points
Critical points: A critical point of a continuous function f is a point at which the derivative is zero or undefined.
Singular points: A singular point is a point where the derivative doesn't exist.
In other words, a critical point is when the derivative exists and is zero, and a singular point is when the derivative does not exist.
Also, An inflection point is defined as a point on the curve in which the concavity changes. (i.e) sign of the curvature changes.
