Math Problem Statement
what are the points on cos(x) graph in between 0 and 2
Solution
The cosine function, , is periodic with a period of and it oscillates between -1 and 1. Here are some key points on the graph of between and :
- : .
- : .
- : .
- : .
- : .
These points are critical values where the function changes its direction or reaches its maximum/minimum values.
Relative Questions:
- What is the period of the function?
- How do you find the amplitude of ?
- What is the general formula for the maximum and minimum values of ?
- How does the graph of compare to ?
- What are the intercepts of the graph?
Tip: Remember, the function is an even function, meaning , which reflects its symmetry about the y-axis.
