This example demonstrates the graph and properties of the tangent function. Key mathematical concepts include trigonometry. Using GeoGebra commands such as Circle, Vector, Segment, and Intersect, the graph of the tangent function is constructed. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Circle((-3.141592653589793, 0), 1) → UC
  2. Vector((-3.141592653589793, 0), ((-π) + cos(θ), sin(θ))) → anglevec
  3. Segment((-2.141592653589793, 0), ((-π) + 1, tan(θ))) → tanseg
  4. Segment(((-π) + 1, tan(θ)), (θ, tan(θ))) → hseg
  5. Segment((-3.141592653589793, 0), ((-π) + 1, tan(θ))) → seg1
  6. Intersect(tanseg, seg1) → B
