Using f(x) = (tan x) as a guide, graph the function. Identify the period, x-intercepts,and asymptotes.
\n" ); document.write( "solve : g(x)= tan (1/4)x
\n" ); document.write( "**
\n" ); document.write( "Standard form for tangent function: y=A tan(Bx-C), period=π/B, phase-shift=C/B.
\n" ); document.write( "For given tangent function, g(x)=tan(x/4):
\n" ); document.write( "B=1/4
\n" ); document.write( "period:π/(1/4)=4π
\n" ); document.write( "(1/4) period=π
\n" ); document.write( "phase-shift: none
