The graph of y = sin x The graph of y = sin x is a cyclical curve that takes on values between –1 and 1. Therange of y = sin x is _____________. Each cycle (wave) corresponds to one revolution of the unit circle. The period of y = sin xis _______ or _______. Graphing the sine wave on the x-y axes is like “unwrapping” the values of sine on the unit circle.
Take a look at the graph of y = sin x: (one cycle) Points on the graph of y = sin x
More about the graph of y = sin x Notice that the sine curve issymmetric about the origin. Therefore, we know that the sine function is an ODD function; that is, for every point (x, y) on the graph, the point (-x, -y) is also on the graph. For example, are on the graph of y = sin x.
Using Key Points to Graph the Sine Curve • Once you know the basic shape of the sine curve, you can use the key points to graph the sine curve by hand. • The five key points in each cycle (one period) of the graph are: • 3 x-intercepts • maximum point • minimum point
The graph of y = cos x The graph of y = cos xis also a cyclical curve that takes on values between –1 and 1.The range of the cosine curve is ________________. The period of the cosine curve is _______ or _______.
Take a look at the graph of y = cos x: (one cycle) Points on the graph of y = cos x
More about the graph of y = cos x Notice that the cosine curve issymmetric about the y-axis. Therefore, we know that the cosine function is an EVEN function; that is, for every point (x, y) on the graph, the point (-x, y) is also on the graph. For example, are on the graph of y = cos x.
Using Key Points to Graph the Cosine Curve • Once you know the basic shape of the cosine curve, you can use the key points to graph the cosine curve by hand. • The five key points in each cycle (one period) of the graph are: • maximum point • 2 x-intercepts • minimum point
Characteristics of the Graphs of y = sin x and y = cos x • Domain: ____________ • Range: ____________ • Amplitude: The amplitude of the sine and cosine functions is half the • distance between the maximum and minimum values of the function. • The amplitude of both y= sin x and y = cos x is ______. • Period: The length of the interval needed to complete one cycle. • The period of both y= sin x and y = cos x is ________.
Transformations of the graphs of y = sin x and y = cos x • Reflections over x-axis • Vertical Stretches or Shrinks • Horizontal Stretches or Shrinks/Compression • Vertical Shifts • Phase shifts (Horizontal)
I. Reflection in x-axis Example:
II.Vertical Stretchor Compression (Amplitude change) Example
II. Vertical Stretch or Compression • *Note: • If the curve is vertically stretched • if the curve is vertically shrunk
Example The graph of a function in the form y = A sinx or y = A cosx is shown.Determine the equation of the specific function.
III. Horizontal Stretch or Compression (Period change) Example
III. Horizontal Stretch or Compression (Period change) • *Note: • If the curve is horizontally stretched • If the curve is horizontally shrunk
