    Angle Graph
Click For Summary
The graph of y=sin(1/x) does not cross the y-axis due to its discontinuity at x = 0. As a result, the angle of intersection at this point is undefined. The function oscillates infinitely as it approaches the y-axis, preventing a clear crossing. Consequently, there is no angle to measure at the y-axis crossing for this function. Understanding this behavior is crucial for analyzing the graph's properties.

at which angle does the graph y=sin(1/x) cross the y-axis??

Value undefined: the function is discontinuous at x = 0, which means, the graph doesn't cross the y-axis.
