Trigonometric Graphs Flashcards

The sine graph has a wave-like shape, repeating every 360° (or 2π radians).

The cosine graph has a wave-like shape, similar to the sine graph, but starts at its maximum value.

The tangent graph has a repeating pattern with vertical asymptotes and no maximum or minimum values.

The period of sine and cosine graphs is 360° (or 2π radians).

The period of the tangent graph is 180° (or π radians).

The range of sine and cosine graphs is -1 to 1.

The range of the tangent graph is all real numbers (no limits).

The sine graph passes through (0, 0), (90°, 1), (180°, 0), (270°, -1), and (360°, 0).

The cosine graph passes through (0, 1), (90°, 0), (180°, -1), (270°, 0), and (360°, 1).

The tangent graph passes through (0, 0), (180°, 0), and has vertical asymptotes at 90° and 270°.
