ch5: trig functions Flashcards
1
Q
periodic function
A
- function whose y-vals have pattern tht repeats at regular intervals
- amplitude and period remain same regardless of which cycle it is
2
Q
cycle
A
one complete pattern
3
Q
period
A
- horizontal length of one cycle
- p = x2 - x1
- always positive
4
Q
amplitude
A
- half of length btwn max and min y-vals (half the height)
- a = (Ymax - Ymin)/2
- always positive
5
Q
amplitude/period of tan/cot graphs
A
- a: none
- p = π
6
Q
what does asymptotic mean? which graphs showcase it?
A
- to approach a limit (asymptote) but not reach it
- tan and cot graphs show this
7
Q
eoa eqn
A
(max+min)/2
8
Q
amp equation
A
(max-min)/2
