Homework Statement
f(theta)=2sec(theta)+tan(theta)
The Attempt at a Solution
I found the derivative and set it equal to zero and to reduce writing I substituted x for theta
f'(x)=2sec(x)tan(x)+sec^2(x)
sec(x)[2tan(x)+sec(x)]=0
My question is what are the critical numbers? do the critical numbers exist where sec(x) is underfined because sec(x) will never equal 0.
