Sketch on a graph 2 periods of y=150sin(4x-π)in radians
\n" ); document.write( "**
\n" ); document.write( "Equation used to graph sin function: y=Asin(Bx-C), A=amplitude, Period =2π/B, C/B=Phase shift
\n" ); document.write( "For given sin function:
\n" ); document.write( "A=150
\n" ); document.write( "B=4
\n" ); document.write( "Period: 2π/B=2π/4=π/2
\n" ); document.write( "1/4 period=π/8
\n" ); document.write( "Phase shift:C/B=π/4 (shift to right)
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Graphing: (For 2 periods)
\n" ); document.write( "Let us first graph the basic sin function for 2 periods
\n" ); document.write( "On the x-axis make tick marks at π/8, π/4, 3π/8, π/2, 5π/8, 3π/4, 7π/8, π, representing 2 periods.
\n" ); document.write( "This will give you the following points:
\n" ); document.write( "(0,0), (π/8,1), (π/4,0), (3π/8-1), (π/2,0), (5π/8,1), (3π/4,0), (7π/8,-1), (π,0)
\n" ); document.write( "multiply the y-coordinates by 150
\n" ); document.write( "(0,0), (π/8,150), (π/4,0), (3π/8-150), (π/2,0), (5π/8,150), (3π/4,0), (7π/8,-150), (π,0)
\n" ); document.write( "add π/4 to the x-coordinates (shifting the curve π/4 to the right)
\n" ); document.write( "(π/4,0), (3π/8,150), (π/2,0), (5π/8,-150), (3π/4,0), (7π/8,150), (π,0), (9π/8,-150), (5π/4,0)
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "set x=0
\n" ); document.write( "0=150(sin (-π))=0
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept=0
\n" ); document.write( "You now have all these points and the y-intercept with which you can graph the function. The graph should start from the origin. So the following is the final configuration:
\n" ); document.write( "(0,0), (π/8,-150), (π/4,0), (3π/8,150), (π/2,0), (5π/8,-150), (3π/4,0),(7π/8,150), (π,0), (9π/8,-150), (5π/4,0)
\n" ); document.write( "The x-coordinates are numbers(radians) with decimals; ie, π/8≈.3927, 3π/8≈1.1781, etc. Use π=3.14
\n" ); document.write( "Note that the period of given sin function=π/2
\n" ); document.write( "A phase shift of π/4 shifts the curve half a period to the right
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
