4.08 Graphs of Other Trig Functions

Introduction

In the previous section, the properties of the graphs of the sine and cosine trigonometric functions were discussed. In this section we will expand our study to the tangent and cotangent functions, as well as the reciprocal functions of secant and cosecant.

We've already looked at how the components of the sine and cosine functions transform those graphs. Let's examine the impact of parts of the function on the graphs of other trig functions. You'll do this using Illuminations: Trigonometric Graphing.
