periodic function a function that repeats its values in regular intervals
Examine each of the following graphs. • Does the graph represent • a periodic function?
amplitude magnitude of change in the oscillating variable If the greatest value of f(x) is M and the least value of f(x) is m, then the amplitude of the graph of f(x) is M m
For trig functions, amplitude is distance to max or min value from the midline. M m
What is the amplitude of the periodic function? undefined none
period smallest positive distance at which a function repeats For any function f(x), the smallest positive number p for which is called the period of f(x).
What is the period of the periodic function? 1 Look for repeating y-values to determine period…but the period is the length along the x-axis.
Sine Graph: f(q)= sinq q sine
