4.6 Day 2, 4.7 and Unit Circle Review
-Graphing Tangent and Cotangent
-Inverse Trig Functions
-Unit Circle

2
Lesson Goals
Understand how asymptote equations are found for tangent, and cotangent by finding when the function in the denominator is equal to 0
Graph and write tangent and cotangent equations and identify the period and asymptote equations
Explain why and how the domains of sine, cosine, and tangent must be restricted to create an inverse function
Evaluate inverse trig expressions and equations
Fill in blank unit circle

WARMUP!
The unit circle is divided into four quadrants. What are the angle and radian values for each quadrant.
write out answers like this:
ex. Q1:
degrees: 0 ° - 90 °

Review of Inverse Trig Functions
y = arcsin (x)
D: [-1, 1]
R: [- π / 2 , π / 2]
y = arccos (x)
D: [-1, 1]
R: [0 , π ]
y = arctan (x)
D: (- ∞ , ∞ )
R: [- π / 2, π / 2]

Review of Tangent and Cotangent
- Cotangent is the reciprocal of Tangent
cot θ = 1 / tan θ
= cos θ / sin θ
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

Multiple Choice
Is this a tangent or cotangent graph?
tangent
cotangent
16
Multiple Choice
What is the period of y = tan (1/2x)?
(Hint: use "B = horizontal stretch / shrink" from the 4.5 day 2 notes, don't need to look at the graph to find the period. You can calculate it with the period formula)
Period = Period of Parent Function / B
2 π
1/2 π
π
1/4 π
17
Multiple Choice
What is equation for the vertical asymptotes of y = cot (3x)? (Graph corresponds to y = cot (3x) equation)
x = 1/3 π n
x = 3 π n
x = 1/3 π + π n
x = 3 π + π n
