    3.4.1: Exercises 3.4

    Terms and Concepts

    Exercise \(\PageIndex{1}\)

    Explain why the domain of tangent is restricted.

    Answer

    Tangent is undefined whenever cosine is 0.

    Exercise \(\PageIndex{2}\)

    Explain why the domain of cosecant is restricted.

    Answer

    Cosecant is undefined whenever sine is 0.

    Exercise \(\PageIndex{3}\)

    Explain what is meant by the range of a function.

    Answer

    The range describes the possible output values of the function.

    Exercise \(\PageIndex{4}\)

    What do the coordinates on the unit circle tell you?

    Answer

    The x coordinate tells you the value of cosine for that angle and the y coordinate tells you the value of sine for that angle.

    Exercise \(\PageIndex{5}\)

    Sketch the unit circle from memory. Use Figure 3.4.2 to check your work and add in any values you could not remember.
