Please help me to draw f(x) = sin(x) if x<=0 and f(x)=cos(x) if x>1

There are a few options. One is to use the piecewise command:

f=Piecewise([[(-10,1),sin(x)],[(1,10),cos(x)]],x)
plot(lambda x: f(x),(-2*pi,2*pi))

Another is to use a python function definition:

def f(x):
    if x<=1:
        return(sin(x))
    else:
        return(cos(x))
plot(f,(-2*pi,2*pi))

Note that with the python function definition, the plot command must be called just with f and not f(x). Calling with f(x) causes python to evaluate $f$ before doing the plot and will result in an incorrect plot.

Another option is to use two separate plots: plot(sin(x), (x, -10, 0)) + plot(cos(x), (x, 1, 10)). By the way, I don't know if the question contains a typo or if there is not supposed to be a plot when x is between 0 and 1.
