Use a graphing utility to graph the function. Use the graph to determine the behavior of the function as \(x \rightarrow c\) (a) \(x \rightarrow\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)^{+}\) (b) \(x \rightarrow\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)^{-}\) (c) \(x \rightarrow\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)^{+}\) (d) \(x \rightarrow\left(-\frac{\pi}{2}\right)^{-}\) $$f(x)=\tan x$$
Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. $$\arctan x=\frac{\arcsin x}{\arccos x}$$
Fill in the blank. If not possible, state the reason. $$\text { As } x \rightarrow 1^{-}, \text {the value of } \arcsin x \rightarrow \text{______}$$
Find the distance between Dallas, Texas, whose latitude is \(32^{\circ} 47^{\prime} 39^{\prime \prime} \mathrm{N}\) and Omaha, Nebraska, whose latitude is \(41^{\circ} 15^{\prime} 50^{\prime \prime} \mathrm{N}\) Assume that Earth is a sphere of radius 4000 miles and that the cities are on the same longitude (Omaha is due north of Dallas).
Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. You can obtain the graph of \(y=\sec x\) on a calculator by graphing a translation of the reciprocal of \(y=\sin x\)
