Graphing Trigonometric Functions Standard form: y = A tan (Bx - C) + D or y = A cot (Bx - C) + D Amplitude = “none” (but it does change “slope” of curve (check when “tan x = 1”)) Period = π / |B| Asymptotes: (tan x): x=(C ± (π/2)) / B Asymptotes (cot x): x= C / B, (C + π) / B Vertical shift = D Domain (tan x): -∞ ≤ x ≤ +∞, x ≠ n(π/2), n odd integer Domain (cot x): -∞ ≤ x ≤ +∞, x ≠ n(π) Range: -∞ ≤ y ≤ +∞ Three key points: (, ), (, ), (, ) Drawing the curve: (1) Determine D, the vertical phase shift. This will be the “new” horizontal axis at y = D. (2) Determine and draw the asymptotes (this identifies period and phase shift). (3) Divide the period into four equivalent parts - label each interval. (4) Evaluate the function for each of the three x values resulting from Step 3. (5) Plot those points found in Step 4 and join them with a curve. (6) Draw for two cycles
