Answer 1

the period of the tan function is pi

Answer 2

oops period has changes to pi/(pi-1)

Answer 3

for example if we had tan 2x period would be pi/2

Answer 4

So it would still be pi though, correct?

Answer 5

n we get pi /(pi-1)

Answer 6

equation is y=1/8tanx(pi-1)

Answer 7

x hs bee muliplied by (pi -1) so new period is pi/(pi-1)

Answer 8

oh ok...
