Provide an appropriate response.What are four ways that a function may fail to be differentiable at a point?

A. The function is not defined at the point; the function is discontinuous at the point; the function has a limit at the point; the function has a vertical tangent at the point.
B. The function is not defined at the point; the function is discontinuous at the point; the function has a corner or similar sharp change in direction at the point; the function has a vertical tangent at the point.
C. The function is not defined at the point; the function is discontinuous at the point; the function has a corner or similar sharp change in direction at the point; the function has a horizontal tangent at the point.
D. The function is not defined at the point; the function is discontinuous at the point; the function has a peak or a valley at the point; the function has a vertical tangent at the point.
