As below.

$y = - cot (3x - pi/4)$

Standard form of cotangent function is $y = A cot(Bx - C) + D$

$A = -1, B = 3, C = pi/4, D = 0$

$Amplitude = |A| = "NONE for cotangent function"$

$"Period " = (pi) / |B| = (pi) / 3$

$"Phase Shift " = -C / B = (-pi/4) / 3 = -pi/12, " " pi/12 " to the LEFT"$

$"Vertical Shift " = D =0$

graph{- cot(3x - pi/4) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
