Graph y=1/4*sec(x)
Find the asymptotes.
For any , vertical asymptotes occur at , where is an integer. Use the basic period for , , to find the vertical asymptotes for . Set the inside of the secant function, , for equal to to find where the vertical asymptote occurs for .
Set the inside of the secant function equal to .
The basic period for will occur at , where and are vertical asymptotes.
Find the period to find where the vertical asymptotes exist. Vertical asymptotes occur every half period.
The absolute value is the distance between a number and zero. The distance between and is .
Divide by .
The vertical asymptotes for occur at , , and every , where is an integer. This is half of the period.
There are only vertical asymptotes for secant and cosecant functions.
Vertical Asymptotes: for any integer
No Horizontal Asymptotes
No Oblique Asymptotes
Vertical Asymptotes: for any integer
No Horizontal Asymptotes
No Oblique Asymptotes
Use the form to find the variables used to find the amplitude, period, phase shift, and vertical shift.
Since the graph of the function does not have a maximum or minimum value, there can be no value for the amplitude.
Amplitude: None
Find the period of .
The period of the function can be calculated using .
Replace with in the formula for period.
The absolute value is the distance between a number and zero. The distance between and is .
Divide by .
Find the phase shift using the formula .
The phase shift of the function can be calculated from .
Phase Shift:
Replace the values of and in the equation for phase shift.
Phase Shift:
Divide by .
