Facts and Properties


Domain
The domain is all the values of q that
can be plugged into the function.
sin q , q can be any angle
cos q , q can be any angle
1

tan q , q n + p , n = 0, 1, 2,K
2

csc q , q n p , n = 0, 1, 2,K
1

sec q , q n + p , n = 0, 1, 2,K
2

cot q , q n p , n = 0, 1, 2,K

Range
The range is all possible values to get
out of the function.
csc q 1 and csc q -1
-1 sin q 1
-1 cos q 1 sec q 1 and sec q -1
- < tan q <
- < cot q <

Period
The period of a function is the number,
T, such that f (q + T ) = f (q ) . So, if w
is a fixed number and q is any angle we
have the following periods.
