y = 1 + 2sin4 x + 4
a = 2, b = 4, c = 1, d = 4
Period:
2.
3.
Find the middle of the graph. This tells us that c = 1 and a = 1. Shift the graph so that the middle is on the xaxis. Since the graph goes through the origin, we will use sine.
5.
Since the graph goes through the origin, we dont have to worry about a phase shift, so d = 0. One period of the graph is from 0 to , so we can use that to calculate b.
y = 1 + sin2x
This time we have a phase shift. Since we have to use cosine, we will shift the graph over /4 to the right. d= 4
4.
Since cosine normally starts above the x-axis, this graph has a negative a. The period goes from 0 to 2, so b is 1.
1 y = 2 cos x + 2 4
