8.2 Sine and Cosine Curves Period and Amplitude Changes
Periodic function keeps repeating the same pattern over and over The smallest period of a periodic function is called the fundamental period Amplitude
SINE FUNCTION Period =2π Amplitude = 1
COSINE FUNCTION Period =2π Amplitude = 1
General Form We are going to graph sine and cosine waves with changes to both the amplitude (a) and the period (b). So, the equations will be in the form: or
General Form Where: Amplitude=│a│ Period=2π/b or b=2π/p
To do these, think carefully about: • where to start the wave • how high and low the maximum and minimum values (y-coordinates) should be • how long (x-interval) it should take to complete one full wave
Examples • Graph Amplitude = 3 Period = π
Examples • Graph Amplitude = 4 Period =4π
