Tangent Function Graph
created by Mr. Lafferty
Cosine Function Graph
y = a sin (x)
y = a cos (x)
y = a tan (x)
For a > 1 stretches graph in the y-axis direction.
For a < 1 compresses graph in the y - axis direction.
For a < 0 graph reflects in the x – axis.

Phase Angle
y = sin (x - b)
y = cos (x - b)
b moves graph
along x – axis.
Naming a Function
y = a cos (x – b)
a =3 b = -30
y = 3 cos (x - 30)
