4.5 Day 1: Graphing Sine and Cosine Functions
Remember from the unit circle:
(0, 1)
(-1, 0) (1, 0) (cosx, sinx)
(0, -1)
So, the graph of y = sinθ looks like: And, the graph of y = cosθ looks
like:
y= sinx y= cosx
Given: y = asinbx or y = acosbx
a = amplitude, which is the distance from the x-axis to the top of the graph (always
positive!)
-a: reflects x-axis
b = number of cycles in a period from 0 to 2π
-b: reflects y-axis

4.6 Day 1: Graphs of Secant and Cosecant
Remember from graphs of sin and cos:
Given: y = asinb(x±h) ± k or y = acosb(x±h) ± k
a = amplitude, which is the distance from the x-axis to the top of the graph (always
positive!)
Secant and Cosecant graphs do not have amplitude. Instead, it is a vertical stretch.
Given: y = asecb(x±h) ± k or y = acscb(x±h) ± k
a = vertical stretch (always positive!) b = number of cycles in a period from 0
to 2π
-a: reflects x axis -b: reflects y axis
h: phase shift (+ goes left, - goes right) k: vertical shift (+ goes up, - goes down)
2π period
period = increments =
b
Steps to graph secant or cosecant:
1) If csc, graph as if it were sin or if sec, graph as cos, but graph as a dotted line.
2) Graph vertical asymptotes: where the graph of sin or cos crosses the x-axis.
3) Go to each max and min vertex and graph the reciprocal (flip the graph).
Graph & determine the vertical stretch, period, phase shift ,vertical shift and
asymptotes.
