Standard form of equation for sin function: y=Asin(Bx-C), A=amplitude, Period =2π/B. Phase shift=C/B.
For given sin function: y=-2sin2(x-3pi/4)
Can be rewritten: y=-2sin(2x-3π/2
B=2
Period=2π/B=2π/2=π
C=-3π/2
Phase shift=C/B=(3π/2)/2=3π/4 (to the right)
Amplitude=2
..
Graphing for one period:
On the x-axis make tick marks at: 0, π/4, 2π/4, 3π/4, 4π/4, 5π/4, 6π/4, 7π/4, 8π/4 (For clarity, I left the fraction in 4th's, but in the final graph they should be reduced to lowest terms)
At these x-values, y=-2, 0, 2, 0,-2, 0, 2, and 0 respectively.
You now have these points to graph the function: (0,-2), (π/4,0), (π/2,2), (3π/4,0), (π,-2), (5π/4,0), (3/π/2,2), (7π/4,0), (2π,-2)
note: Because of the phase shift, the curve started at 3π/4 and ended at 2π which covered one period. The graph was extended back to zero to show the y-intercept at -2.
