  1. Where are the critical points of tan x? | Socratic

    If you write y=tanx=sinx/cosx, when cosx=0, you have a null denominator. The points of discontinuity of the function y=tanx are in x=pi/2+kpi " where " k in ZZ", that are the solutions of …

  2. Does anyone else experience a "crash" of the Socratic answer if …

    When I answer trig graphing questions, I like to show a "basic graph" of the function - for example, #y=sinx#, and then walk through and show the changes step by step to the graph. But if I put …

  3. Please help checking proof? - Socratic

    Apr 29, 2017 · Here is my proof, which is wrong? I am proving sinx - sinxtanx =0 sinx = sinxtanx 1 = tanx Apparently I HAVE to factor out sinx. Why is that? Trigonometry

  4. Slope of a Curve at a Point Questions and Videos - Socratic

    What is the first derivative of #x+ tanx# and how do you find the slope of the normal to the curve where #x=pi#? What is the slope of the line tangent to the graph of #x^2xy+y^2=7#? What is …

  5. How do you prove? [cos (pi/2-x)-2cos (pi/2-x)sin^2x+cos (pi/2 …

    Mar 14, 2018 · sinx(1 −2sin2x +sin4x)sec5(x) = tanx We can now factor the parenthesis: sinx(1 −sin2x)(1 − sin2x)sec5(x) = tanx A very familiar modified Pythagorean identity will now be …
