The points of intersection with the Y axis coordinate
The graph crosses Y axis when x equals 0:
substitute x = 0 to (1 - cos(x))*cot(x).
$$\left(1 - \cos{\left(0 \right)}\right) \cot{\left(0 \right)}$$
The result:
$$f{\left(0 \right)} = \text{NaN}$$
- the solutions of the equation d'not exist
Extrema of the function
In order to find the extrema, we need to solve the equation
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the derivative equals zero),
and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function:
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the first derivative
$$\left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \left(- \cot^{2}{\left(x \right)} - 1\right) + \sin{\left(x \right)} \cot{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
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
$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the second derivative equals zero),
the roots of this equation will be the inflection points for the specified function graph:
$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the second derivative
$$- 2 \left(\cos{\left(x \right)} - 1\right) \left(\cot^{2}{\left(x \right)} + 1\right) \cot{\left(x \right)} - 2 \left(\cot^{2}{\left(x \right)} + 1\right) \sin{\left(x \right)} + \cos{\left(x \right)} \cot{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solutions are not found,
maybe, the function has no inflections
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
True

Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the left:
$$y = \lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)}\right)$$
True

Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the right:
$$y = \lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)}\right)$$
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of (1 - cos(x))*cot(x), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
True

Let's take the limit
so,
inclined asymptote equation on the left:
$$y = x \lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{\left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)}}{x}\right)$$
True

Let's take the limit
so,
inclined asymptote equation on the right:
$$y = x \lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{\left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)}}{x}\right)$$
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:
$$\left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)} = - \left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)}$$
- No
$$\left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)} = \left(1 - \cos{\left(x \right)}\right) \cot{\left(x \right)}$$
- Yes
so, the function
is
odd
