The symbol $\mathbb {R} =(-\infty ,\infty )$ denotes the set of all real numbers and $\mathbb {Z} =\{\ldots ,\,-2,\,-1,\,0,\,1,\,2,\,\ldots \}$ denotes the set of all integers. The set of all integer multiples of $\pi$ is denoted by $$\pi \mathbb {Z} ~:=~\{\pi n\;:\;n\in \mathbb {Z} \}~=~\{\ldots ,\,-2\pi ,\,-\pi ,\,0,\,\pi ,\,2\pi ,\,3\pi ,\,4\pi ,\,\ldots \}~=~\{\theta \in \mathbb {R} \;:\;\sin \theta =0\}.$$ The Minkowski sum notation $\pi \mathbb {Z} +(0,\pi )$ means $${\begin{alignedat}{4}\pi \mathbb {Z} +(0,\pi )&~=~\cdots \cup (-2\pi ,-\pi )\cup (-\pi ,0)\cup (0,\pi )\cup (\pi ,2\pi )\cup (2\pi ,3\pi )\cup (3\pi ,4\pi )\cup \cdots \\&~=~\mathbb {R} \setminus \pi \mathbb {Z} \\\end{alignedat}}$$ where $\,\setminus \,$ denotes set subtraction. In other words, the domain of $\,\cot \,$ and $\,\csc \,$ is the set $\mathbb {R} \setminus \pi \mathbb {Z}$ of all real numbers that are not of the form $\pi n$ for some integer $n.$

Similarly, the domain of $\,\tan \,$ and $\,\sec \,$ is the set $${\begin{alignedat}{4}\pi \mathbb {Z} +\left(-{\frac {\pi }{2}},{\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)&~=~\cdots \cup \left(-{\frac {3\pi }{2}},-{\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left(-{\frac {\pi }{2}},{\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left({\frac {\pi }{2}},{\frac {3\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left({\frac {3\pi }{2}},{\frac {5\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left({\frac {5\pi }{2}},{\frac {7\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \cdots \\&~=~\mathbb {R} \setminus \left({\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi \mathbb {Z} \right)\\\end{alignedat}}$$ where $\mathbb {R} \setminus \left({\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi \mathbb {Z} \right)$ is the set of all real numbers that do not belong to the set $${\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi \mathbb {Z} ~:=~\left\{{\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi n:n\in \mathbb {Z} \right\}=\left\{\ldots ,\,-{\frac {3\pi }{2}},\,-{\frac {\pi }{2}},\,{\frac {\pi }{2}},\,{\frac {3\pi }{2}},\,{\frac {5\pi }{2}},\,{\frac {7\pi }{2}},\,\ldots \right\}~=~\{\theta \in \mathbb {R} \;:\;\cos \theta =0\};$$ said differently, the domain of $\,\tan \,$ and $\,\sec \,$ is the set of all real numbers that are not of the form ${\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi n$ for some integer $n.$
