Basic elementary functions include power function, exponential function, logarithmic function, trigonometric function, inverse trigonometric function and constant function.

A function is a correspondence between sets. Then, we should understand that there is more than one functional relationship between A and B, and finally, we should focus on understanding the three elements of the function.

The corresponding rules of functions are usually expressed by analytical expressions, but a large number of functional relationships can not be expressed by analytical expressions, but only by images, tables and other forms.

Concept:

In the process of a change, the quantity that changes is called a variable (in mathematics, the variable is X, and Y changes with the change of the value of X), and some numerical values do not change with the variable, so we call them constants.

Independent variable (function): a variable related to other quantities, and any value in this quantity can find a corresponding fixed value in other quantities.

Dependent variable (function): it changes with the change of independent variable. When the independent variable takes a unique value, the dependent variable (function) has and only has a unique value corresponding to it.

Function value: in a function where y is x, x determines a value, and y determines a value accordingly. When x takes a, y is determined as b, and b is called the function value of a. ..

Trigonometric function:

Trigonometric function is a kind of transcendental function in elementary function in mathematics. Their essence is the mapping between the set of arbitrary angles and a set of ratio variables. The usual trigonometric function is defined in the plane rectangular coordinate system, and its domain is the whole real number domain. The other is defined in a right triangle, but it is incomplete.

Modern mathematics describes them as the limit of infinite sequence and the solution of differential equation, and extends their definitions to complex system.

Because of the periodicity of trigonometric function, it does not have the inverse function in the sense of single-valued function.

Trigonometric functions have important applications in complex numbers. Trigonometric function is also a common tool in physics.

It has six basic functions: sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent, secant and cotangent.
