13. Trigonometric Functions
A trigonometric function (also known as a circular function) is a function of an angle that contains an expression involving sine, cosine, tangent, cosecant, secant or cotangent. It relates the angles of a triangle and the lengths of its sides. When graphed on a coordinate plane, the x-axis is expressed in radians or degrees and the y-axis is in standard real numbers. To use a radian or degree scale for the x-axis, go to Menu > Settings > Graph > x-axis scale type > Radians (or degrees).

To graph a trigonometric function:
1) If the equation is defined explicitly i.e. "y =," enter only the trigonometric function.
2) If the equation is defined implicitly, enter the entire equation as given.
3) To sketch graphs on the same coordinate axes, enter one equation per line.

Examples
Sketch the graphs of:
1.    y = 2 + cos x
2.   y = -2 sin (x – π/2)
3.   y = sec2x

Calculator solutions

Make sure that the trigonometric keys are available on the keyboard. If not, hold the π key to display them.
Enter the expressions as given.
1) 2 + cos x
2) -2 sin (x – π/2)
3) sec2x 
    Enter secant by tapping cos three times.

To look at each graph individually, enter one equation per workspace.

More Examples
1.   y= -1/2 csc ½ x
2.   y = cot x
3.   y = 2 tanx – 1

Calculator solutions
Enter each expression as given.
1) -1/2 csc ½ x
   Enter cosecant by tapping sin three times.
2) cot x
    Enter cotangent by tapping tan three times.
3) 2 tanx – 1
