Since fc in bypass RC circuit, is the largest of the three cutoff frequencies and is separated from the next highest frequency by more than two octaves, the dominant pole approximation is applicable. Hence the low cutoff frequency fH for the amplifier is
fH = fc = 238.73Hz

Since the two frequencies are separated by more than two octaves, the dominant pole approximation can be applied. The lower cut-off frequency is the higher of the two frequencies i.e. 64.8 Hz

• The cut-off frequency is also known as 3-dB frequency or half-power frequency or corner frequency.
• The lower cut-off frequency is determined by the components (R and C) external to the transistor.
