Characteristics of the six trig graphs (5.3)(2)

POD
If sin θ = 4/5, and θ is in quadrant II, findcos θ
sin (π-θ)
sin (-θ)
What can we say about the sine of any obtuse angles?
How about the sine of opposite angles?

Review from last time
Using the unit circle and the graphs on the handout or calculator, compare
cos (30°) cos (-30°)
sin (π/4) sin (-π/4)
tan (π/6) tan (-π/6)
What might that tell us about the nature of these functions?

Consider a reciprocal function
What do you think the graph of y = csc θ would look like? Let’s build it off of the sine graph.

Consider a reciprocal function
Start with the sine graph.
Plot reciprocal y-values for x-values.
Where do we not get y-values?

Consider a reciprocal functionSee how the ranges of
the reciprocal functions are related?
If we remove the sine graph, we have this. Where are the vertical asymptotes?
What are the domain and range?
Is it even, odd, neither?

Consider another reciprocal function
How would the graph of y = sec θ compare with this?

How would the graph of y = sec θ compare with this?

Even, odd, or neither?

Consider the third reciprocal function
y = cot θ
Where are the vertical asymptotes? Why?
What are the domain and range?

Summary chart—let’s do this.
Fill in the chart below for the characteristics of three primary trig functions.
Function period amplitude asymptotes
The full chart for all six trig functions is on p. 401.

Formulas for negative angles
Since sine and tangent are odd functions,
sin(-x) = -sin(x)tan(-x) = -tan(x)csc(-x) = -csc(x)cot(-x) = -cot(x)
In other words, change the sign of the angle, change the sign of the trig value. You can see this especially clearly on the graph.

Formulas for negative angles
Since cosine is an even function
cos(x) = cos(-x)sec(x) = sec(-x)
In other words, change the sign of the angle, the trig value stays the same. You can see this on the graph.

Finally…
… an interesting graph. On calculators, graph f(x) = sin(x)/x on the interval . What does the graph do as and ?

Finally…
Although we know there is a hole at x = 0, it appears that as x approaches 0 from either direction.

Finally…
An interesting result from this interesting graph is that, if x is in radians and close to 0, then
which means thatfor very small angles. Test if for x = .03, .02, .01.
