a. tan(x)=sin(x)/cos(x)
b. cot(x)=cos(x)/sin(x)
c. sec(x)=1/cos(x)
d. csc(x)=1/sin(x)
Asymptotes from sine and cosine cause these graphs to differ. Sine and cosine are the only functions without a x or y in its denominator. All other trig functions do. Whenever sine (y) is 0 there will be an asymptote and that is where cotangent and cosecant have their asmyptote. The same goes for cosine (x), whenever it is 0 there will be an asymptote. This is what causes the trig graphs to change and differ.
