Pre-Class Problems16 for Friday, October19

These are the type of problems that you will be working on in class. These problems are fromLesson 8.

Objective of the following problems: To use a sketch of the graph of two cycles of the sine and cosine functions in order to sketch two cycles of the respective cosecant and secant functions and label the numbers on the x- and y-axes.

1.Identify the amplitude, period, and phase shift. Sketch two cycles of the graph of the following functions on the same side of the y-axis. Label the numbers on the x- and y-axes as needed. You only need to label where each cycle begins and ends.
