Question

a. Write an equation for the trigonometric function represented by the graph below. b. Explain your thinking in identifying the equation.​

Answer 1

y = tan(2x)

Explanation:

You want the equation corresponding to the graph of a trig function.

Tangent

The general shape of the curve is that of the tangent function. This one has a period of π/2, which is half the period of the parent tangent function. Compressing the tangent function horizontally by a factor of 2 makes it ...

y = tan(2x)
