Solutions

Expert Solution

Periodic function:

A periodic function is a function that repeats its value over a fixed interval. The fixed interval is called as period of the function. Mathematically it is represented as

f(x + P) = f(x)

 

Tangent function:

A tan function is a trigonometric function representing ratio between opposite side to base. It is an odd function with period π.

 

A general form of tan function is

y = Atan(Bx – C) + D

 

In this case the tan function is

f(x) = 2tan(x – π/6)

 

Comparing with the general form the stretching factor is

|A| = 2

 

Period of the function is

P = π/|B|

   = π

 

Since, D = 0, the midline equation is

y = 0

 

The asymptotes occur at

x = π/2|B| + π/|B|k

   = π/2 and 3π/2

 

Asymptotes of the function are π/2 and 3π/2.

Amplitude of the function is 2.

Period of the function is π.

Mid line of the function is y = 0.

 

Graph is plotted as follows:
