Hint Maths4Scotland Higher • Part of the graph of y = 2sin x + 5cos x is shown • in the diagram. • Express y = 2sin x + 5cos x in the form k sin (x + a) • where k > 0 and 0 a 360 • b) Find the coordinates of the minimum turning point P. Expand ksin(x + a): Equate coefficients: Square and add a is in 1st quadrant (sin and cos are +) Dividing: Put together: Minimum when: P has coords. Previous Next Quit Quit
Hint Maths4Scotland Higher • Write sin x - cos x in the form k sin (x - a) stating the values of k and a where • k > 0 and 0 a 2 • b) Sketch the graph of sin x - cos x for 0 a 2 showing clearly the graph’s • maximum and minimum values and where it cuts the x-axis and the y-axis. Expand ksin(x - a): Equate coefficients: Square and add a is in 1st quadrant (sin and cos are +) Dividing: Put together: Sketch Graph Previous Next Quit Quit Table of exact values
