how do u find points and domains of discontuity

where the derivative does not exist.

Derivatives? That's useful when you're trying to find differentiable points. Discontinuity is when the limit is not equal to the actual function output. That is:\[ \large \lim_{x\rightarrow a} f(x) \neq f(a) \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Generally, you will find discontinuity in places where the function has an asymptote, a jump, or a point that is undefined.

One thing to look for is when you have a denominator that could be 0, or a square root that could be non-positive.
