I have to graph the following equation of the two periods of a tangent. The problem is y= 2 tan x/4.
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Standard form of the Tangent function: y=A(Bx-C), with period=π/B, Phase-shift=C/B, A=multiplier which stretches the curve vertically
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "For given tangent function: y=2 tan x/4
\n" ); document.write( "B=1/4
\n" ); document.write( "Period=π/B=π/(1/4)=4π
\n" ); document.write( "1/4 Period=π
\n" ); document.write( "C=0
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Graphing:
\n" ); document.write( "On the x-axis, starting from 0, make tick marks at π, 2π, 3π, 4π, 5π, 6π, 7π, and 8π.
\n" ); document.write( "This covers 2 periods of the given tan function.
\n" ); document.write( "Draw vertical asymptotes at x=2π and x=6π
\n" ); document.write( "At x=π & 5π, y=2
\n" ); document.write( "At x=3π & 7π, y=-2
\n" ); document.write( "You now have the following points to plot the graph for y=2 tan x/4:
\n" ); document.write( "(0,0), (π,2), (2π, ud) (3π,-2), (4π,0), (5π,2), (6π,ud),(7π,-2), (8π,0) (ud=vertical asymptotes) \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
