How do I find the domain and range of y=tan(2x-pi)?

The domain of a function y = f(x) is all the values that
the independent variable x can take which gives real values for
y.


The range is the values of y when x lies in the
domain.


The tangent function is periodic with a periodicity
of pi.


Here, y = tan (2x -
pi)


For the set of values [-pi/2, pi/2], the value of the
tangent of every angle can be found except -pi/2 and
pi/2.


2x - pi cannot be equal to pi/2, 2x cannot be equal
to 3pi/2, x cannot be equal to 3*pi/4


2x - pi cannot be
equal to -pi/2, 2x cannot be equal to pi/2, x cannot be equal to
pi/4


The domain of the function is R - {k*pi/4, -3*k*pi/4}
where k is an integer.


The range of the function is
R.


The required domain is R - {k*pi/4,
-3*k*pi/4} and the range is R
