What is the period of f(x)=5tan(2x)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "The usual period for tan is (pi)
\n" ); document.write( "But, because the \"x\" is multiplied by 2, tan
\n" ); document.write( "goes thru its value range at double speed.
\n" ); document.write( "So the period is shortened to:
\n" ); document.write( "Period = (pi)/2
