BQ# 3: Unit T Concept 1-3 , How do the graphs of Sine and Cosine relate to each other?


How do the graphs of sine and cosine relate to each of the others?  Emphasize asymptotes in your response.
Sine and Cosine relate to each of the other graphs due to that fact that they serve as a stepping stone in a way. All the other graphs are based on these two lines that come from Sine and Cosine. Asymptotes are formed at the mark where cosine is equal to zero and sine is equal to one. All of the lines drawn are always close to but never touching the asymptote.

Tangent?
The lines are facing upwards in the graph they are going off by the points that are created by Sin and Cosine.

Cotangent? 
These lines are the exact opposite of Tangent. The reason for this is due to that fact that Cotangent is the reciprocal of Tangent so that is why the lines are facing in the opposite direction.

Secant?
Secant is a weird graph it is a set of parabolas in each period. Each asymptote has a part of the line that makes up the parabola in the end.

Cosecant?
These lines are the exact opposite of Secant. The reason for this is due to thatfact that it is the reciprocal of Secant, so that is why the lines are facing in the opposite direction.
