Answer 4

Well lets see 1/sin is csc

Answer 5

Answer 11

Well a period is where its going through one cycle, like the period of cos is 2pi I believe because thats one full cycle than it starts all over again

Answer 12

Let me graph it quick

Answer 13

Make sure your calculator is in radian mode

Answer 14

okay i just done that

Answer 15

Period differs from the amplitude and is not the wave length... So period is the full spectrum of the the function before it repeats.

Answer 16

It looks like one cycle is end up going to be 1/2pi because there are asymptotes at a lot of x values

Answer 17

like for sine the period is 2pi

Answer 18

The period in the case of csc is not going 1/2 pi

Answer 19

It doesnt look like its a full period I could get my trig notes from last year and lpok

Answer 20

Period will be the distance from the beginning of one big U in the graph to the very end of the U
