Topic 4 Periodic Functions & Applications II Definition of a radian and its relationship with degrees Definition of a periodic function, the period and amplitude Definitions of the trigonometric functions sin, cos and tan of any angle in degrees and radians Graphs of y = sin x, y = cos x and y = tan x Significance of the constants A, B, C and D on the graphs of y = A sin(Bx + C) + D, y = A cos(Bx + C) + D Applications of periodic functions Solutions of simple trigonometric equations within a specified domain Pythagorean identity sin2x + cos2x = 1

Definition of a radian and its relationship to degrees
Radians In the equilateral triangle, each angle is 60o r If this chord were pushed onto the circumference, r this radius would be pulled back onto the other marked radius 60

Radians 1 radian 57o18’ 2 radians 114o36’ 3 radians 171o54’
4
Radians radians = 180o /2 radians = 90o /3 radians = 60o
etc

2. Definition of a periodic function, period and amplitude
Consider the function shown here. A function which repeats values in this way is called a Periodic Function The minimum time taken for it to repeat is called the Period (T). This graph has a period of 4 The average distance between peaks and troughs is called Amplitude (A). This graph has an amplitude of 3

4. Graphs of y = sin x, y = cos x and y = tan x
23
The general shapes of the three major trigonometric graphs
y = sin x y = cos x y = tan x
24
5. Significance of the constants A,B, C and D on the graphs of…
y = A sinB(x + C) + D y = A cosB(x + C) + D
25
Open the file y = sin(x)
26
y = A cos B (x + C) + D A: adjusts the amplitude B: determines the period (T). This is the distance taken to complete one cycle where T = 2/B. It therefore, also determines the number of cycles between 0 and 2. C: moves the curve left and right by a distance of –C (only when B is outside the brackets) D: shifts the curve up and down the y-axis

Graph the following curves for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2
