What are the basics for the parent graph of tangent

The video tutorial covers the tangent function, its characteristics, and graphing techniques. It explains the concept of asymptotes, the period of the tangent function, and how it differs from sine and cosine functions. The tutorial also discusses the lack of amplitude in the tangent graph, the use of X scale for graphing, and transformations affecting the graph. Additionally, it covers the domain and range of the tangent function, emphasizing its continuous increase and lack of extrema.

What is the tangent of an angle in terms of the unit circle?

• y / x

• y * x

• x * y

• x / y

At what angle does the tangent function have an asymptote?

• 0 degrees

• 45 degrees

• 90 degrees

• 180 degrees

How often does the tangent function repeat itself?

• Every 3π

• Every π

• Every 2π

• Every π/2

Why does the tangent function not have an amplitude?

• It never stops increasing or decreasing

• It has a minimum value

• It has a maximum value

• It is a constant function

What effect does multiplying the tangent function by 3 have on its graph?

• It shifts the graph down

• It shifts the graph up

• It stretches the graph

• It compresses the graph

What is the domain of the tangent function?

• All real numbers except multiples of π/2

• All real numbers

• All real numbers except multiples of π

• All real numbers except multiples of 2π

How does the tangent function behave between its asymptotes?

• It decreases

• It oscillates

• It remains constant

• It increases
