You can put this solution on YOUR website!
y = tan x
\n" ); document.write( "Firstly, let's observe:
\n" ); document.write( "y = tan x
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28300%2C300%2C-3.14%2C3.14%2C-5%2C5%2Csin%28x%29%2Fcos%28x%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Period: \"pi\"
\n" ); document.write( "y = tan 2x
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28300%2C300%2C-3.14%2C3.14%2C-5%2C5%2Csin%282x%29%2Fcos%282x%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Period: \"pi\"/2
\n" ); document.write( "y = tan (1/2)x
\n" ); document.write( "\"graph%28300%2C300%2C-6.28%2C6.28%2C-5%2C5%2Csin%28x%2F2%29%2Fcos%28x%2F2%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Period: \"2%2Api\"
\n" ); document.write( "It's expressed: \"pi\"/b where \"b\" is the coefficient of x
\n" ); document.write( "
