Trigonometric functions are used extensively in calculus.

When you use trig functions in calculus, you must use radian measure for the angles. The best plan is to set the calculator mode to radians and use when you need to use degrees.

If you want to brush up on trig functions, they are graphed in your book.

Even and Odd Trig Functions:

“Even” functions behave like polynomials with even exponents, in that when you change the sign of x, the y value doesn’t change.

Cosine is an even function because: cos cos

Secant is also an even function, because it is the reciprocal of cosine.

Even functions are symmetric about the y - axis.

Even and Odd Trig Functions:

“Odd” functions behave like polynomials with odd exponents, in that when you change the sign of x, the

sign of the y value also changes.

Sine is an odd function because: sin sin

Cosecant, tangent and cotangent are also odd, because their formulas contain the sine function.

Odd functions have origin symmetry.

The rules for shifting, stretching, shrinking, and reflecting the graph of a function apply to trigonometric functions.

Trig functions are not one-to-one.

However, the domain can be restricted for trig functions to make them one-to-one.

These restricted trig functions have inverses.

Inverse trig functions and their restricted domains and ranges are defined in the book.

The text passage is a transcript or summary of a PowerPoint presentation on trigonometric functions, including their properties, graphs, and transformations. It does not contain any specific mathematical questions or answers to such questions.
no_question
Given a text passage, determine:
    1. If it contains a mathematical question (including word problems or calculations)
    2. If an answer to that mathematical question is provided in the text

First, describe the content structure you found in 1-2 sentences.

Then provide your analysis in the following format:
TYPE: <one of the following values>
- NO_QUESTION
- SINGLE_QUESTION
- SINGLE_QUESTION_WITH_ANSWER
- MULTIPLE_QUESTIONS
- MULTIPLE_QUESTIONS_WITH_ANSWERS
