Graphing cosecant and secant functions

Cosecant and secant graphs are the opposite of sine and cosine graphs. Therefore, if we plot the sine or cosine graph as a reference, we can easily find the secant or cosecant graph as well!

Check out these links for videos on how to graph!

Note that the period, starting point, and ending points are ALL the same for sine, cosine, secant, and cosecant graphs. Amplitude is the only feature that changes (since the graphs are flipped).
