Build the Secant Function from Its Graph Quiz

Turn a secant graph into an equation. You’ll read the distance between asymptotes to get the period, use the vertex height to find the vertical scale and shift, and pinpoint the phase shift from the vertex location. Then...

Sample Question 1
A secant graph has period π, vertical asymptotes at x = −3π/4, −π/4, π/4, 3π/4, … and a minimum value of y = −2 at x = 0.

Y = −2 sec(2x)

Y = −2 sec(4x)

Y = 2 sec(2x)

Y = −2 sec(2x − π)

Sample Question 2
The graph of y = sec(x) is shifted right by π/3 and reflected across the x-axis. What is the resulting function?

Y = sec(x + π/3)

Y = sec(x − π/3)

Y = −sec(x − π/3)

Y = −sec(x + π/3)

Secant Graphs: Period, Asymptotes, Shifts & Range Quiz

See how secant rides on cosine! You’ll use the reciprocal relationship to place vertical asymptotes where cosine is zero, find the U-shaped branches, and read the period, shifts, and reflections from the equation. By the...
