Graphs, Models with Sine and Cosine

Learning Objectives

• Graph the sine and cosine functions, as well as transformations of these, such as:

  • Vertical compression/stretches (change in the function's amplitude)

  • Horizontal compression/stretch (change in the function's period)

  • Phase shifts (horizontal translations)

  • Vertical translations

  • Various combinations of the transformations described above

• Use sine and cosine functions to model various real-world scenarios described in words.
