$A$, $B$, $C$, and $D$ will have similar meanings to the secant functions as they did to the sine and cosine functions.

Because cosecant is the reciprocal of sine, when $\sin{x} = 0$, then cosecant is undefined. $|\sin$| is never *greater than* 1, so secant is never *less than* 1 in absolute value. When the graph of cosine crosses the x axis, an asymptote for a matching graph of secant will appear there.

# Features of Secant and Cosecant
- The stretching factor is $|A|$
- The period is $\frac{2\pi}{|B|}$
- The domain of secant is all $x$, where $x \ne \frac{C}{B} + \frac{\pi}{2} + \frac{\pi}{|B}k$, where $k$ is an integer.
# Examples
> Given $-2\tan(\pi*x + \pi) - 1$
