Test 2 Flashcards
Original graph for y = sin(x)
x | 0 | π/2 | π | 3π/2 | 2π |
y | 0 | 1 | 0 | -1 | 0 |
Original graph for y = cos(x)
x | 0 | π/2 | π | 3π/2 | 2π |
y | 1 | 0 | -1 | 0 | 1 |
Equations for y = cos(x) & y = sin(x)
A(trig F)(ωx - φ) + V
How to find period
2π / ω = P for sin & cos; π / ω = P for tan
How do you know whether to use cos/sin from a graph on the test?
cos starts above/below 0;
sin goes through origin
Equation for amplitude from graph
(max - min) / 2
Equation for period from graph
2π/(cycle end - cycle start)
Original graph for y = tan(x)
x | -π/2 | -π/4 | 0 | π/4 | π/2 |
y | NA | -1 | 0 | 1 | NA |
Graph for tan (where are asymptotes & period too)
| || | || | // ------------------//------------------- // | || | || | asymptotes @ ±xπ/2; period = π
Graph for cot (where are the asymptotes, period, & x-intercept too)
| || | || | \\ -------------------------\\------------ | \\ | || | || asymptotes @ ±xπ & 0; period = π; x-int = π/2
How to draw sec graph & its asymptotes
- Draw cos graph
- At each crest & troph, reciprocate it into a bunch of parabolas sticking up & down
- Points on cos graph w/ a y-val of 0 will be vertical asymptotes (so ±xπ/2)
How to draw csc graph & its asymptotes
- Draw sin graph
- At each crest and troph, reciprocate it into a bunch of parabolas sticking up & down
- Points on sin graph w/ a y-val of 0 will be vertical asymptotes (so ±xπ & 0)
Order of transformations
period, phase shift, amplitude, vertical shift
What happens if ω is negative?
Undef for sin & tan; if it’s in cos, use even function property and…take the negative away lmao
How do you know whether Amp is positive or negative?
If the cycle begins or goes straight to a negative troph, it’s a negative Amp
If it begins/goes straight to positive troph, it’s positive
