4.5Sinusoidal Graphs Sketching and Writing Equations
Graphs of sine and cosine functions. Sinusoidal Graphs Periodic Function Functions whose graphs have a repeating pattern. Sinusoidal Graphs Period The horizontal length of each cycle in a periodic graph. Midline The horizontal line halfway between a sinusoid’s max/min values.
Characteristics of the Sine Function • The domain is the set of all real numbers. • The range consists of all real numbers from -1 to 1, inclusive. • The sine function is an odd function (symmetric with respect to the origin). • The sine function has a period of 2π • Midline is the x-axis
