Figure 3 shows part of the curve C1 with equation y = 3sinx, where x is measured in degrees.
The point P and the point Q lie on C1 and are shown in Figure 3.
(a) State
(i) the coordinates of P,
(ii) the coordinates of Q.
On the grid above, sketch the graph of y = –2 cos x° for –180 ≤ x ≤ 180
(b) Correct graph, points through (0, 2) (90, 0) (180, −2) (270, 0) (360, 2)
2 (a) 180, 0
(b) 270, −1
(c) a=2
b=3
c =1
3 (a)(i) P = (90°, 3)
(ii) Q = (540°, 0)
(b) (270°, 4)
