A question is this type if and only if it asks you to sketch two or more curves on the same axes and deduce the number of solutions/intersections, possibly extending to larger intervals.
A question is this type if and only if it asks you to state or find the coordinates of maximum/minimum points on a given trigonometric curve, either from a graph or equation.
A question is this type if and only if it asks you to sketch the graph of a single trigonometric function (possibly transformed) over a specified interval.
A question is this type if and only if it requires finding the exact coordinates where two trigonometric curves (or a curve and line) intersect by solving equations.
A question is this type if and only if it applies a trigonometric model to a real-world context (harbour depth, daylight hours, Ferris wheel) and asks for specific times or values.
A question is this type if and only if you are given one trigonometric ratio (like sin θ or cos θ) and must find the exact value of another ratio (like tan θ) without a calculator.
A question is this type if and only if it asks you to state the values of constants a, b, c (or similar) from a given graph of a trigonometric function like y = a sin(bx) + c or y = a tan(x - b) + c.
A question is this type if and only if you must determine constants a, b, c in a trigonometric function y = a + b cos x or similar from given function values at specific points.

A question is this type if and only if it requires solving a trigonometric equation to find approximate/decimal solutions (to a specified number of decimal places) in a given interval.
A question is this type if and only if it requires solving a trigonometric equation to find exact solutions (involving surds, fractions of π, or exact angle values) in a given interval, possibly using identities or algebraic manipulation.
A question is this type if and only if it asks you to sketch or identify a graph after a specific transformation (translation, stretch, reflection) has been applied to a standard trig function.
A question is this type if and only if it asks you to show or prove that one trigonometric expression equals another, or to manipulate an equation into a specific form.
A question is this type if and only if it requires using a trigonometric equation or identity to find the exact value of a trigonometric ratio (such as sin θ, cos θ, or tan θ) rather than finding angle values, typically involving algebraic manipulation and possibly Pythagorean identities.
A question is this type if and only if the equation can be rewritten as a quadratic in sin x, cos x, or similar, requiring substitution and the quadratic formula or factoring.
