what about tan asymptotes? Normal tan graph they happen every odd pi on 2 and get moved in the same way as the intercepts.

Y.

But what about if you have, for eg.  tan(2x).
How do you figure out the asymptotes for that?

Noooo, don't do methods.
All my friends did further 1 today.  Okay not all of them.  But many.
And I wish I did that.
Instant 50 man!
Methods, I'll get like 36 if I'm lucky.

for tan(2x), just divide the assymptote by 2. like if you were calculating a period for a sin or cos graph.

I'm doing both, im only aiming for like low 30s for methods.

Oh I see it in your signature now!
Good choice.
Methods was impossible for me for the most part of the year D:

for tan(2x), just divide the assymptote by 2. like if you were calculating a period for a sin or cos graph.

So the asymptotes would be pi/4 and 3pi/4 etc?  Argh, thankyou, this makes sense.  I was given some ultra complicated equation with k and something or another constants and I was all "What is this!?"
But now it makes so much more sense!

Anyone know the answer for that human development question? Something like 'whats the most important physical development in homo sapiens?' Don't remember it exactly.

Under the impression that this was larger brain case/larger brain volume relative to body size.

That is the general equation of a tan asymptote, could come up in MC or a 1 mark question in extended response
