3.2 Graphing y= k + A sin Bx and y = k + A cos Bx

Graphing y = A sin x and y = A cos xGraphing y = sin Bx and y = cos BxGraphing y = A sin Bx and y = A cos BxGraphing y= k + A sin Bx

and y = k + A cos BxApplications

Comparing Amplitudes

Compare the graphs of y = 1/3 sin x

and y = 3 sin xThe effect of A in

y = A sin x is to increase or decrease the y values without affecting the x values.

Comparing Periods

Compare the graphs of y = sin 2x

and y = sin ½ x

The graph shows the change in the period.

Amplitude and Period

For both y = A sin Bx and y = A cos Bx:

Amplitude = |A| Period = 2/B

Vertical Shift

y = -2 + 3 cos 2x, - x 2Find the period, amplitude, and phase shift and

then graph

Period and Frequency

For any periodic phenomenon, if P is the period and f is the frequency, P = 1/f.

3.3 Graphing y = k + A sin (Bx + C)and y = k + A cos (Bx + C)

Graphing y = A sin (Bx + C)

and y = A cos (Bx + C)Graphing y = k + A sin (Bx + C)

and y = k + A cos (Bx + C)Finding the equation for the graph of a

simple harmonic motion

Finding Period and Phase Shift

y = A sin (Bx + C) and y = A cos (Bx + C) These have the same general shape as

y = A sin Bx

and y = A cos Bx translated horizontally. To find the translation:

x = -C/B (phase shift)

and x = -C/B + 2/B

Electromagnetic Waves

E = A sin 2(vt – r/)t = time, r = distance from the source, is the

wavelength, v is the frequency

Water Waves

t = time, r = distance from the source, is the wavelength, f1 is the frequency

Damped Harmonic Motion

Y = (1/t)sin (/2)t, 1 t 8First, graph y = 1/t.Then, graph y = sin(t/2) keeping high and low

points within the envelope.
