Properties of Sine and Cosine Functions The graphs of y = sin x and y = cos x have similar properties: 3. The maximum value is 1 and the minimum value is –1. 4. The graph is a smooth curve. 1. The domain is the set of real numbers. 5. Each function cycles through all the values of the range over an x-interval of. 2. The range is the set of y values such that.

6. Amplitude 6 The amplitude of y = a sin x (or y = a cos x) is half the distance between the maximum and minimum values of the function. amplitude = |a| If |a| > 1, the amplitude stretches the graph vertically. If 0 1, the amplitude shrinks the graph vertically. If a < 0, the graph is reflected in the x-axis. y x y = – 4 sin x reflection of y = 4 sin x y = 4 sin x y = 2sin x y = sin x

7. Period of a Function 7 y x period: 2 period: The period of a function is the x interval needed for the function to complete one cycle. For b  0, the period of y = a sin bx is. For b  0, the period of y = a cos bx is also. If 0 < b < 1, the graph of the function is stretched horizontally. If b > 1, the graph of the function is shrunk horizontally. y x period: 2 period: 4

Use the identity sin (–x) = – sin x The graph of y = sin (–x) is the graph of y = sin x reflected in the x-axis. Example 2: Sketch the graph of y = cos (–x). Use the identity cos (–x) = – cos x The graph of y = cos (–x) is identical to the graph of y = cos x. y x y = sin x y = sin (–x) y = cos (–x)

10. 10 The graph of y = A sin (Bx – C) is obtained by horizontally shifting the graph of y = A sin Bx so that the starting point of the cycle is shifted from x = 0 to x = C / B. The number C / B is called the phase shift. amplitude = | A| period = 2  / B. The graph of y = A sin (Bx – C) is obtained by horizontally shifting the graph of y = A sin Bx so that the starting point of the cycle is shifted from x = 0 to x = C / B. The number C / B is called the phase shift. amplitude = | A| period = 2  / B. x y Amplitude: | A| Period: 2  /B y = A sin Bx Starting point: x = C/B The Graph of y = Asin(Bx - C)
