Tangent Graphs

Front

What is the amplitude of a tangent graph?

Back

The amplitude of a tangent graph is not defined in the same way as sine or cosine graphs, as tangent functions do not have a maximum or minimum value.

Front

What does the parameter D represent in the tangent function?

Back

The parameter D represents the vertical shift of the graph. If D is positive, the graph shifts up; if negative, it shifts down.

What is the effect of changing the value of A in the tangent function?

Back

Changing the value of A affects the steepness of the graph. A larger A makes the graph steeper, while a smaller A makes it less steep.
