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 $$\pi \mathbb {Z} ~:=~\{\pi n\;:\;n\in \mathbb {Z} \}~=~\{\ldots ,\,-3\pi \,-2\pi ,\,-\pi ,\,0,\,\pi ,\,2\pi ,\,3\pi ,\,4\pi ,\,\ldots \}~=~\{\theta \in \mathbb {R} \;:\;\sin \theta =0\}.$$ The Minkowski sum notation $\pi \mathbb {Z} +(0,\pi )$ and $\pi \mathbb {Z} +\left(-{\frac {\pi }{2}},{\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)$ that is used above to concisely write the domains of $\cot ,\csc ,\tan ,{\text{ and }}\sec$ is now explained.

Domain of cotangent $\cot$ and cosecant $\csc$: The domains of $\,\cot \,$ and $\,\csc \,$ are the same. They are the set $${\begin{alignedat}{4}\pi \mathbb {Z} +(0,\pi )&~=~\cdots \cup (-3\pi ,-2\pi )\cup (-2\pi ,-\pi )\cup (-\pi ,0)\cup (0,\pi )\cup (\pi ,2\pi )\cup (2\pi ,3\pi )\cup (3\pi ,4\pi )\cup \cdots \\&~=~\mathbb {R} \setminus \pi \mathbb {Z} \\\end{alignedat}}$$ 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 $n.$ These points not in the domain (meaning $\pi n$ for $n$ an integer) are exactly those numbers $\theta$ at which $0=\sin \theta ;$ this is because these are also exactly the $\theta$ at which $\cot \theta ={\frac {\cos \theta }{\sin \theta }}$ and $\csc \theta ={\frac {1}{\sin \theta }}$ would be divided by $0.$

Domain of tangent $\tan$ and secant $\sec$: The domains of $\,\tan \,$ and $\,\sec \,$ are the same. They are the set $${\begin{alignedat}{4}\pi \mathbb {Z} +\left(-{\frac {\pi }{2}},{\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)&~=~\cdots \cup \left(-{\frac {5\pi }{2}},-{\frac {3\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left(-{\frac {3\pi }{2}},-{\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left(-{\frac {\pi }{2}},{\frac {\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left({\frac {\pi }{2}},{\frac {3\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left({\frac {3\pi }{2}},{\frac {5\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \left({\frac {5\pi }{2}},{\frac {7\pi }{2}}\right)\cup \cdots \\&~=~\mathbb {R} \setminus \left({\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi \mathbb {Z} \right)\\\end{alignedat}}$$ 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 Failed to parse (unknown function "\begin{alignat}"): {\displaystyle \begin{alignat}{4} \frac{\pi}{2} + \pi \Z ~:&=~ \left\{ \frac{\pi}{2} + \pi n : n \in \Z \right\} \\[0.3ex] ~&=~ \left\{ \ldots, \,\frac{\pi}{2} - 3\pi, \,~~\frac{\pi}{2} - 2\pi, \,~~\frac{\pi}{2} -\pi, \,~~\frac{\pi}{2}, \,~~\frac{\pi}{2} + \pi, \,~~\frac{\pi}{2} + 2\pi, \,~\frac{\pi}{2} + 3\pi, \,\ldots \right\} \\[0.6ex] ~&=~ \left\{ \ldots, \,[[User:Mgkrupa|<span style="text-shadow:grey 0.3em 0.3em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Mgkrupa</span>]]- \frac{5 \pi}{2}, \,[[User:Mgkrupa|<span style="text-shadow:grey 0.3em 0.3em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Mgkrupa</span>]] 19:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)- \frac{3 \pi}{2}, \,19:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)-\frac{\pi}{2}, \,~~\frac{\pi}{2}, \,19:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)~\frac{3 \pi}{2}, \,19:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[[User:Mgkrupa|<span style="text-shadow:grey 0.3em 0.3em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Mgkrupa</span>]] 19:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)\frac{5 \pi}{2}, \,19:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[[User:Mgkrupa|<span style="text-shadow:grey 0.3em 0.3em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Mgkrupa</span>]] 19:35, 5 October 2021 (UTC)\frac{7 \pi}{2}, \,\ldots \right\} \\[0.6ex] ~&=~ \{ \theta \in \R \;:\; \cos \theta = 0 \} \\[0.3ex] \end{alignat}} said differently, the domain of $\,\tan \,$ and $\,\sec \,$ is the set of all real numbers that are not of the form ${\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi n={\frac {\pi +2\pi n}{2}}={\frac {\pi (1+2n)}{2}}$ for some integer $n;$ this is also the set of all numbers that are not of the form ${\frac {o}{2}}\pi$ for some odd integer $o.$ These points not in the domain (meaning ${\frac {\pi }{2}}+\pi n$ for $n$ an integer) are exactly those numbers $\theta$ at which $0=\cos \theta ;$ this is because these are also exactly the $\theta$ at which $\tan \theta ={\frac {\sin \theta }{\cos \theta }}$ and $\sec \theta ={\frac {1}{\cos \theta }}$ would be divided by $0.$
