Determine the values of x for which the given function is un
Determine the values of x for which the given function is undefined. (Let k be any integer.)
1) y = tan x
2) y = csc x
Solution
1) y = tan x
for x = pi/2;
tan(pi/2) = undefined
x = pi/2, 3pi/2 , 5pi/2....
x= (2k+1)pi/2 where k is any integer ; k=0, 1, 2...
2) y = cscx
for x= 0 ; cscx = undefined
cscx = 1/sinx = undefined
sinx = 0
x = 0,pi, 2pi,3pi....
x= k*pi
2) y = csc x where k is any integer ; k=0, 1, 2...
