Please read the explanation.
Explanation:
Let us look at the standard form:
Period :
x-scale:
Let us look at the data table, with constraint
For the sake of focus and clarity contraint is used.
Graph the given trigonometric function:
Note:
-
Constraint
-2 pi < x < 2pi -
Parent graph of
y=f(x)=tan(x) is also available in colorcolor(red)("RED") for comparison -
Graph of the given function
y=f(x)=[tan(x/2)] is incolor(blue)("BLUE" -
x-intercepts : They happen within the periods of
2pi
i.e.,(-4pi, -2pi,0, 2pi, 4pi) etc
Hope you find this useful.
