The function sec(x) is the secant function. It is related to the other functions by the expression 1/cos(x). It is not the inverse cosine or arccosine, it is one over the cosine function. Ex. cos(pi/4)= sqrt(2)/2 therefore secant is sec(pi/4)= 1/sqrt(2)/2 or 2/sqrt(2).

Which trigonometric function has a domain of all real numbers?
y = sin(x)
A function whose graph is not a straight line?
LOTS- cubic - quadratics - reciprocal - hyperbola - trigonometric - and more
What is the product of a trigonometric function and its reciprocal?
The product of any object and its reciprocal is always the identity. In the case of numbers, 1 (one).
What are the six trigonometric functions of 180 degrees?
sin(180) = 0 cos(180) = -1 tan(180) = 0 cosec(180) is not defined sec(180) = -1 cot(180) is not defined.
Why is the secant function is an even function and the tangent and cosecant are odd functions?
I find it convenient to express other trigonometric functions in terms of sine and cosine - that tends to simplify things. The secant function is even because it is the reciprocal of the cosine function, which is even. The tangent function is the sine divided by the cosine - an odd function divided by an even function. Therefore it is odd. The cosecant is the reciprocal of an odd function, so it is naturally also an odd function.
Is sinh a trigonometric function?
Yes, but it is called a hyberbolic trigonometric function
Examples of trigonometric function?
There r 6 trignometric functions,namely sin a cos a tan a cosec a sec a cot a where a is the angle. Trigonometric functions didn't exist without angles.
What is the difficulties of trigonometric function of an angles?
TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS OF ANY ANGLE
What is the sin function?
It is a trigonometric function. It is also continuous.
What is the arc function for trigonometric relationships?
The trigonometric function of an angle gives a certain value The arc trigonometric function of value is simply the angle For example, if sin (30 degrees) = 0.500 then arc sine ( 0.500) = 30 degrees
What is an antitrigonometric function?
An antitrigonometric function is another term for an inverse trigonometric function.
What is the trigonometric function of sin?
opposite/hypotenuse
What is a reciprocal trig function?
A reciprocal trigonometric function is the ratio of the reciprocal of a trigonometric function to either the sine, cosine, or tangent function. The reciprocal of the sine function is the cosecant function, the reciprocal of the cosine function is the secant function, and the reciprocal of the tangent function is the cotangent function. These functions are useful in solving trigonometric equations and graphing trigonometric functions.
How do numbers affect the trigonometric function?
Trigonometric functions are defined from a numeric domain to a numeric range. So the input number determines whether or not the function is defined for that value and, if so, what the value of the function is.
What is secism?
You only use the seccant trigonometric function.
What is a cotangent?
Cotangent is a trigonometric function. It is the reciprocal of the tangent.
What is the trigonometric function for cotA plus B plus C?
cot(A+B+C) is, itself, a trigonometric function, so the question does not really make any sense!
