Graphs of Secant and Cosecant Section 4.5b HW: p. p. 403-404 7, 11, 15, 23, 29-39 odd
2
The graph of the secant function The graph has asymptotes at the zeros of the cosine function. Wherever cos(x) = 1, its reciprocal sec(x) is also 1. The period of the secant function is, the same as the cosine function. A local maximum of y = cos(x) corresponds to a local minimum of y = sec(x), and vice versa.

4
The graph of the cosecant function The graph has asymptotes at the zeros of the sine function. Wherever sin(x) = 1, its reciprocal csc(x) is also 1. The period of the cosecant function is, the same as the sine function. A local maximum of y = sin(x) corresponds to a local minimum of y = csc(x), and vice versa.
