Objective Questions

-------------------

 1. Plot the curve ``sin(x) - cos(x)`` in the range (0, 2pi)

   Answer::

       x = var('x')

       plot(sin(x) - cos(x), (x, 0, 2*pi))

 2. plot ``sin(3x)`` and ``cos(x/3)`` and show them in same figure

   Answer::

       x = var('x')

       p1 = plot(sin(3*x), (x, 0, 2*pi))

       p2 = plot(cos(x/3), (x, 0, 2*pi))

       show(p1+p2)

 3. plot ``cos(x)`` vs ``sin(x)^15`` in the range (-2pi, 2pi)

   Answer::

       x = var('x')

       parametric_plot((cos(x), sin(x)^15), (x, -2*pi, 2*pi))

 4. plot tan curve in the range (-2pi, 2pi) in red colour.

    [hint: see the documentation]

   Answer::

       x = var('x')

       p1 = plot(tan(x), (x, -2*pi, 2*pi), color=(1, 0, 0))

       show(p1)

 5. plot ``e^(1/x^2)`` in the range (0.5, 2.5) and set the y-axis limits to (0,

    20)

   Answer::

       x = var('x')

       p2 = plot(e^(1/x^2), (x, 0.5, 2.5))

       show(p2, ymin=0, ymax=20)

 6. plot the function ``y = 5x + 3`` using dotted line in the range (-2, 2)

    [hint: read the documentation of the function ``line``]

   Answer::

       points = [ (i, 5*i+3) for i in srange(-2,2,0.1) ]

       l1 = line(points, linestyle=":")

       show(l1)

 7. plot the function ``z = cos(x) + sin(y)`` for x in the range (0, 2pi) and y

    in range (-2pi, 2pi)

   Answer::

       x, y = var('x y')

       plot3d(cos(x) + sin(y), (x, 0, 2*pi), (y, -2*pi, 2*pi))

 8. Read the sage documentation and find out which function plots closed surfaces

   a. parametric_plot3d

   #. plot3d

   #. implicit_plot3d

   #. contour_plot

   Answer: implicit_plot3d
