10. Graph y = sin x and y = 2 sin x on your graphing calculator
Graph y = sin x and y = 2 sin x on your graphing calculator. Notice that the height of the hump has changed. In the equation y = a sin x is known as the amplitude of the function.

11. Graph y = cos x and y = cos 2x on your graphing calculator
Graph y = cos x and y = cos 2x on your graphing calculator. Notice that the length of the curve has changed. In the equation y = cos bx, b affects the period of the function. Using sin and cos
