transformations for tan and cot

-A value is a vertical stretch. it changes the magnitude. (you multiply A by the y value) -period is pi/B. the new period decides where your asymptotes are

transformations sec, csc

-amplitude sets the range (-infinity, -A] U [A, infinity), basically you move the max/min of the parabola the number of the amplitude -period 2pi/B (moves the asymptotes around)

if given the characteristics for sin and cos

-amplitude= A value -the period = 2pi/B so you take the period and set it equal to 2pi/B and cross multiply to find the B -the vertical shift is the D value, down is negative, up is positive

basic look for cot graph

-asymptote on y axis, next asymptote one period away -then halfway between the two asymptotes is one the axis, and halfway in between pt and axis (to the left) is up, and halfway in between pt and axis (to the right) is down

basic look of csc graph

-bunch of parabolas -draw the sin graph first, the asymptotes are where sin is 0 -the first asymptote is on the y-axis, then at half the period, then at one period away -the first parabola to the right opens up (where the first sin pt would be), then the first parabola to the left opens down

basic look of sec graph

-bunch of parabolas -straddles x axis -draw the cos graph first, the asymptotes are where cos is 0 -asymptotes make up 1/2 a period -first parabola straddle opens up, the both next to the left and right are opening down

how to expand binomial

-coefficient of pascal triangle -first term descending -second term ascending

if it gives you two GEOMETRIC terms and their values how do you find the first term and ratio?

-draw blanks w/ a₂, a₃, etc. on bottom -write in the values -divide the last value from the first THATS GIVEN -the number of blanks in between is how many xs are being multiplied, so thats the kind of root you root it by, which gives you the ratio. then use the values and the ratio to plug in and then find the equation

if it gives you two ARITHMETIC terms and their values how do you find the nth term and common difference?

-find the slope so rewrite the terms as A(whatever term # they give you) = An (whatever term value they give you) -the common difference would be the slope, which would be the difference of the term values/ over the difference of the term #s -use this to plug into formula, along with values, to find the first term and then the equation

systems of equations substitution method

-ideal to use if coefficient for x or y is 1 -isolate the variable with coefficient of 1 -substitute into other equation -back substitute for other variable

matrix addition/subtraction

-may do it only if the matrices have the same dimensions -add/subtract the corresponding ones in the matrix

how to rewrite with a common denominator

-multiply each part by the other denominator, not the whole thing -remember the numerator of the multiplied fraction is only multiplied by the other numerator, same thing applies for the denominators -make sure to multiply top and bottom by the other denominator!!

systems of equations elimination method

-multiply one (or both) equations to get opposites for coefficients of one variable -add equations together so one variable drops out and solve -back substitute for other variable

what to do with the even odd property when simplifying

-must apply first -if it's something like sin^2 (-theta), then it's really like saying (sin(-theta)^2 and you'd have to apply within the squared

3 x3 system with inverse matrix

-must have zero placeholders -do the same thing but use the calc

when can you use (cos, sin)

-on the unit circle -quadrantal angles -when the triangle's hyp = 1 -Q1: special 30, 60, and 45s
