WARM UP Find the amplitude and period of the function and use the language of transformations to describe how the graph of the function is related to the graph of y = sin x. Remember: Amplitude = |a| Period = 2π/|b|
What you’ll learn about • The Basic Waves Revisited • Sinusoids and Transformations • Modeling Periodic Behavior with Sinusoids … and why Sine and cosine gain added significance when used to model waves and periodic behavior.
Sinusoid Period Amplitude
Sine and Cosine f(x) = sin x f(x) = cos x • Domain: All real numbers • Range: [-1, 1] • Continuous • Alternately increasing and decreasing in periodic waves • Bounded • Absolute maximum of 1; Absolute minimum of 1
Phase Shift Remember that the graph of y = f(x +c) is a translation of the graph of y = f(x) by c units to the left when c is positive (c is > 0) That is exactly what happens with sinusoids, and we say that the wave undergoes a of phase shift of –c.
Sin and Cos and Phase ShiftClass Work – Part 1 Graph f(x) = x2 and f(x) = (x + 1)2. What do you see? Graph f(x) = x3 and f(x) = (x –2)3. What do you see? Graph f(x) = sin x and f(x) = sin (x + 4). What do you see?
Sin and Cos and Phase ShiftClass Work – Part 2 Now, graph y = sin(x) in Y1 and y = cos(x) in Y2 What do you see in terms of a phase shift between sine and cosine? Look at the points where sin(x) has a maximum and cos(x) has a minimum (and vice versa) Can you write the cosine function as a phase shift of the sine function, and the sine function as a phase shift of the cosine function?
Frequency of a Sinusoid • The frequency is simply the reciprocal of the period. • Therefore, the frequency of a sinusoid is |b|/2π • Graphically, frequency is the number of complete cycles the wave completes in a unit interval
Visualizing a Musical Note • The musical note middle C can be modeled by: f(x) = 1.5 sin 524πx • Where x is the time in seconds • What is the amplitude of this function? • What is the period of this function? • What is the frequency of this function? (Frequency is 1/Period) • Graph the function with the graphing window: • Xmin = - 60; Xmax = 60 • Ymin = -4; Ymax = 4 • Xscl = π/2
Example: Finding the Frequency of a Sinusoid • Find the frequency of the function f(x) = 4 sin(2x/3) and interpret its meaning graphically. • The frequency is 2/3 2π = 1/(3 π) • This is the reciprocal of the period, which is 3π.
