The function represents a cosine graph with axis at y = - 1, period of 6, and amplitude of 2.5.
How to analyze sinusoidal functions
In this question we have a sinusoidal function, of which we are supposed to find the following variables based on given picture:
- Equation of the axis - Horizontal that represents the mean of the bounds of the function.
- Period - Horizontal distance needed between two maxima or two minima.
- Amplitude - Mean of the difference of the bounds of the function.
- Type of sinusoidal function - The function represents either a sine or a cosine if and only if trigonometric function is continuous and bounded between - 1 and 1.
Then, we have the following results:
- Equation of the axis: y = - 1
- Period: 6
- Amplitude: 2.5
- The graph may be represented by a cosine with no angular phase and a sine with angular phase, based on the following trigonometric expression:
cos θ = sin (θ + π/2)
