Let f(θ)=tan⁡θ+sec⁡θf(\theta)=\tan \theta+\sec \theta, where θ\theta is measured in radians. a. (i) Determine all values of θ\theta in the interval [0, 2π][0,\,2\pi] for which f(θ)f(\theta) is undefined. b. (ii) How many points of discontinuity does ff have in the closed interval [0, 8π][0,\,8\pi]? Show your reasoning. c. (iii) On each open sub-interval of continuity of ff in [0, 2π][0,\,2\pi], does ff attain a maximum or minimum value? Give a brief justification.
