As Below.

#y = (1/2) sec ((pi/2)x)#

Standard form is #color(red)(y = A sec (Bx - C) + D#

#Amplitude = |A| = color(red)("NONE") " for secant function"#

#"Period " = (2pi) / |B| = (2pi) / (pi/2) = 4#

#"Phase shift " = -C / B = 0#

#"Vertical Shift " = D = 0#

graph{(1/2) sec ((pi/2) x) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
