if the value of the reactive component was increased, how would it change the waveforms?
A series resonant circuit has it's reactive components connected in series with each other; while the reactive components, as in a "tank" circuit, are connected in parallel with each other. The resonant series circuit has the capability of producing usable increased voltage levels across each component at resonance, while the resonant tank circuit does not. The resonant parallel, or "tank" circuit; has the dual capability of creating a situation whereby the input amperage level is reduced to minimum while, at the same time, a maximum amount of circulating amperage is created between the two reactive tank components at resonance.
This means there is a reactive component, either inductive or capacitive, to the load.
'Reactive Power', which is expressed in reactive volt amperes, describes the rate at which energy is alternately stored (in a circuit's electric or magnetic field) and returned to the a.c. supply when the field collapses. It differs from true power, expressed in watts, because true power describes the rate at which energy is permanently lost by heat transfer due to the resistive component of the circuit.Reactive power doesn't 'have an use', per se, it's merely a way of quantifying the movement of energy in the reactive component of an a.c. circuit.The vector sum of a circuit's reactive power and its true power is called the apparent power of the circuit, expressed in volt amperes.
A circuit that has only a capacitor in it. Or the net reactance is below zero, making it capacitive. The current leads the voltage in a negative (capacitive) reactive circuit.

A seríes circuit will not work when a component burns out, because then no current can pass around the circuit.

Integrated circuit
The three waveforms in the trigger circuit of an oscilloscope are the sine wave, square wave and saw tooth wave.
Inductors are considered to be a load for reactive power, meaning that they will draw reactive power from the system. Capacitors are considered to be sourced of reactive power, they feed reactive power into the system. If you have a circuit that is at unity (balanced with inductors and capacitors) no reactive power will be drawn from the source. You will have unity power factor. If your circuit is more inductive than capacitive it will be drawing reactive power from the source. The opposite is also true for capacitors.
Analysing a circuit with a shorted component need specialised electrical test equipment.
