Graphing the Secant Function by Using Cosine

The video tutorial explains how to graph the cosecant function by first graphing its reciprocal, the sine function. It covers key concepts such as amplitude, period, and vertical asymptotes. The instructor demonstrates how to identify important points on the sine graph and use them to create the cosecant graph, emphasizing the creation of vertical asymptotes at intercepts. The tutorial concludes with the removal of the sine graph, leaving the completed cosecant graph.
