4.3 Notes Day 2

The document discusses the graphs of the tangent and cotangent functions. It notes that these functions are periodic, meaning they repeat in a predictable pattern, with a period of π. The document provides examples of transformations that can be applied to the basic graphs of y=tanx and y=cotx, such as vertical stretch/shrink, period, vertical translation, and phase shift. It also lists 5 example functions and describes the transformations applied to each.

3 Day 2 Graphs of the Tangent and Cotangent Functions

Tangent and Cotangent functions are periodic. This means they repeat with a predictable pattern.

Let’s take a look at Tangent and Cotangent ……

How often will these graphs repeat??

The period of 𝑓(𝑥) = tan 𝑥 and 𝑓(𝑥) = cot 𝑥 is:

𝑦 = 𝑐 + 𝑎 tan(𝑏(𝑥 − 𝑑)) or 𝑦 = 𝑎 tan(𝑏(𝑥 − 𝑑)) + 𝑐

𝑦 = 𝑐 + 𝑎 cot(𝑏(𝑥 − 𝑑)) or 𝑦 = 𝑎 cot(𝑏(𝑥 − 𝑑)) + 𝑐
