Q2. Given the function :

  • What is the amplitude?

  • What is the period? (Type pi for , if needed.)

  • What is the phase shift? (Type pi for , if needed.)

  • What is the mid-line? Enter your answer as an equation.

Background

Topic: Trigonometric Functions (Sine Function Transformations)

This question tests your understanding of how to analyze and interpret the parameters of a transformed sine function, including amplitude, period, phase shift, and mid-line.

Key Terms and Formulas

Amplitude: The distance from the mid-line to the maximum (or minimum) value of the function. For , amplitude is .

  • Period: The length of one complete cycle. For , period is .

  • Phase Shift: The horizontal shift of the graph. For , phase shift is (to the right if positive, to the left if negative).

  • Mid-line: The horizontal line that runs through the center of the graph, given by .

Step-by-Step Guidance

  1. Identify the values of , , , and in the function .

  2. Find the amplitude using .

    • Amplitude =

  3. Calculate the period using .

    • Period =

  4. Determine the phase shift using .

    • Phase shift =

  5. State the mid-line using .

    • Mid-line:

Try solving on your own before revealing the answer!

Final Answers:

  • Amplitude: 3

  • Period: $4$

  • Phase shift: $3$

  • Mid-line:

Each value is found by applying the standard formulas for sine function transformations. The period simplifies to 4, and the phase shift simplifies to 3 units to the right.
