The points of intersection with the Y axis coordinate
The graph crosses Y axis when x equals 0:
substitute x = 0 to cot(2*x).
∞~\tilde{\infty}
The result:
f(0)=∞~f{\left(0 \right)} = \tilde{\infty}
sof doesn't intersect Y
Extrema of the function
In order to find the extrema, we need to solve the equation
ddxf(x)=0\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = 0
(the derivative equals zero),
and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function:
ddxf(x)=\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} =
the first derivative
−2cot⁡2(2x)−2=0- 2 \cot^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} - 2 = 0
Solve this equation
Solutions are not found,
function may have no extrema
Inflection points
Let's find the inflection points, we'll need to solve the equation for this
d2dx2f(x)=0\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = 0
(the second derivative equals zero),
the roots of this equation will be the inflection points for the specified function graph:
d2dx2f(x)=\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} =
the second derivative
8(cot⁡2(2x)+1)cot⁡(2x)=08 \left(\cot^{2}{\left(2 x \right)} + 1\right) \cot{\left(2 x \right)} = 0
Solve this equation
The roots of this equation
x1=π4x_{1} = \frac{\pi}{4}

Сonvexity and concavity intervals:
Let’s find the intervals where the function is convex or concave, for this look at the behaviour of the function at the inflection points:
Concave at the intervals
(−∞,π4]\left(-\infty, \frac{\pi}{4}\right]
Convex at the intervals
[π4,∞)\left[\frac{\pi}{4}, \infty\right)
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
lim⁡x→−∞cot⁡(2x)=⟨−∞,∞⟩\lim_{x \to -\infty} \cot{\left(2 x \right)} = \left\langle -\infty, \infty\right\rangle
Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the left:
y=⟨−∞,∞⟩y = \left\langle -\infty, \infty\right\rangle
lim⁡x→∞cot⁡(2x)=⟨−∞,∞⟩\lim_{x \to \infty} \cot{\left(2 x \right)} = \left\langle -\infty, \infty\right\rangle
Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the right:
y=⟨−∞,∞⟩y = \left\langle -\infty, \infty\right\rangle
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of cot(2*x), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
lim⁡x→−∞(cot⁡(2x)x)=lim⁡x→−∞(cot⁡(2x)x)\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{\cot{\left(2 x \right)}}{x}\right) = \lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{\cot{\left(2 x \right)}}{x}\right)
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined asymptote equation on the left:
y=xlim⁡x→−∞(cot⁡(2x)x)y = x \lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{\cot{\left(2 x \right)}}{x}\right)
lim⁡x→∞(cot⁡(2x)x)=lim⁡x→∞(cot⁡(2x)x)\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{\cot{\left(2 x \right)}}{x}\right) = \lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{\cot{\left(2 x \right)}}{x}\right)
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined asymptote equation on the right:
y=xlim⁡x→∞(cot⁡(2x)x)y = x \lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{\cot{\left(2 x \right)}}{x}\right)
Even and odd functions
Let's check, whether the function even or odd by using relations f = f(-x) и f = -f(-x).
So, check:
cot⁡(2x)=−cot⁡(2x)\cot{\left(2 x \right)} = - \cot{\left(2 x \right)}
- No
cot⁡(2x)=cot⁡(2x)\cot{\left(2 x \right)} = \cot{\left(2 x \right)}
- Yes
so, the function
is
odd
