The Sine Function


If we project the values of sin from the unit circle to the set of axes we obtain
the graph of y= sin x

The wave of course can be continued beyond 0 x 2


We expect the period to be 2 because it repeats its positioning after one full
revolution.
The maximum value is 1 and the minimum is -1 as -1 y 1 on the unit circle.
The amplitude is 1
Exercise 1: The family y= A sin x
Graph the following on the same set of axes:
(a) y=sin x and y= 2 sin x
(b) y= sin x and y= 0.5 sin x
(c) y=sin x and y= -sin x

State the amplitude of:


(a) y=3 sinx
(b) y= 7 sin x
(c) y= -2 sin x

In y= A sin x I A I determine the amplitude


Exercise 2: The family y= sin Bx B > 0
Graph the following on the same set of axes:
(a) y=sin x and y= sin 2x
(b) y= sin x and y= sin x
State the period of:
(a) y= sin 3x
(b) y= sin x
(c) y= sin (1.2x)
(d) y= sin Bx

In y=sin Bx, B>0 B affects the period and the period is
