4.5 and 4.6: Graphing Trig Functions
Function table: When you first started graphing linear functions you may recall having used the following table to graph. x-2012 f(x)
Function Table: We will still pick convenient x values. Our values will be in radians. Lets try the sine function first. x0 sin(x)
Graph y = sin(x): x0 sin(x)0100
Graph of y = sin x Sine graph is periodic (period for y = sin x is ). Five Key Points: Intercepts, Max, and Min. Amplitude = half the distance bet. the max. and min. (amplitude for y = sin x is 1.)
Function Table: We will still pick convenient x values. Our values will be in radians. Lets try the sine function first. x0 cos(x)
Graph y = cos(x): x0 cos(x)1001
Graph of y = cos x Cosine graph is periodic (period for y = cos x is ). Five Key Points: Intercepts, Max, and Min. Amplitude = half the distance bet. the max. and min. (amplitude for y = cos x is 1.)
Graphing: Amplitude = Period = Divide the period by 4 to get four equal subintervals. Phase Shift : solve equations and. This will give you the left and right endpoints of a period. Vertical Shift = The graph of is a reflection in the x-axis of.
Find the period and amplitude of the graph. 1.) 2.) 3.)

Function Table: Lets try the tangent function. x tan(x)
Graph of y = tan x Tangent graph is periodic (period for y = tan x is ). Vertical asymptotes = X-intercepts =
Graphing: Asymptotes = solve equations and. X-intercept: half way between asymptotes. Period = distance between two consecutive asymptotes. The graph of is a reflection in the y-axis of.

table: Fill in the table for cot(x) and compare it to tan(x). x tan(x)
Graph of y = cot x Cotangent graph is periodic (period for y = cot x is ). Vertical asymptotes = X-intercepts =
Graphing: Asymptotes = solve equations and. X-intercept: half way between asymptotes. Period = distance between two consecutive asymptotes. The graph of is a reflection in the y-axis of.
