Exercise \(\PageIndex{1}\)
Explain why the domain of tangent is restricted.
- Answer
-
Tangent is undefined whenever cosine is 0.
Exercise \(\PageIndex{2}\)
Explain why the domain of cosecant is restricted.
- Answer
-
Cosecant is undefined whenever sine is 0.
Exercise \(\PageIndex{3}\)
Explain what is meant by the range of a function.
- Answer
-
The range describes the possible output values of the function.
Exercise \(\PageIndex{4}\)
What do the coordinates on the unit circle tell you?
- Answer
-
The x coordinate tells you the value of cosine for that angle and the y coordinate tells you the value of sine for that angle.
Exercise \(\PageIndex{5}\)
Sketch the unit circle from memory. Use Figure 3.4.2 to check your work and add in any values you could not remember.
- Answer
