Period In Graphs Of Sine And Cosine. The sine and cosine functions have several distinct characteristics. Graphing sine and cosine functions.
The amplitude of y a sin x and y a cos x represents half the distance between the maximum and minimum values of the function. Periodic functions repeat after a given value. What is the period of a sine cosine curve.
With the standard form being.
Period 2 π b. The domain of each function is and the range is 1 1. Note that we are using radians here not degrees and there are 2 π radians in a full rotation. Sometimes in trigonometry the variable x not the function gets multiplied by a constant.
