Question 922216: Is there anyway I can determine the period and phase shift of this graph visually or algebraically. I understand that a period is just a repeated section of a cosine/sine graph but how do I determine the actual number like for instance 2π/3 how would I find something on that order for the image provided, similarly the phase shift.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The period is 2pi
-----------
If it's a sine, the phase shift is zero
