Find the Period, Amplitude, Phase Shift, and Vertical Shift of the function f(x)=-3cos(2x+π)-3.
f(x) = -3cos(2(x-(-pi/2))-3
------
Form:: y = acos(b(x-c))+d
a = -3 ; b = 2 ; c = pi/2 d = -3
---------------------------------------
Period = 2pi/b = (2pi)/2 = pi
------
Amp = |a| = 3
------
Phase Shift = c/a = (pi/2)/-3 = -(pi/6)
