Graphing Other Trig Functions Lesson 2.6
? Ordered Pairs • Consider theordered pairs in the table at the right • Note • Period = π • Maximum y values • Minimum y values
Plotting the Ordered Pairs Period = π No max or min, no amplitude – goes to infinity
Analyzing y = a tan(b x) • The leading coefficient does not affect the amplitude • There is no amplitude • Rather it affects how much the curve flattens out Try with web graphing utility
Analyzing y = a tan(b x) • The value of b affects the period
cotangent(x) • The shape of the graph is the same • The curve tilts the other way
cosecant(x) • The reciprocal of sin(x) csc(x) sin(x)
secant(x) • Reciprocal of cos(x) • Note for y = a sec (b x) • The a affects how low/high the dip occurs • The b affects the period • As with sin and cos, period = 2π/b
