Explore the amplitude, period, and phase shift by examining the graphs of various trigonometric functions. Students can select values to use within the function to explore the resulting changes in the ...

have the same curve only shifted along the x-axis have an amplitude (half the distance between the maximum and minimum values) of 1 have a period (size of one wave) of 360˚ ...

In a function such as sine or cosine, we could also have a translation of the form: \(y = \sin (x - a)^\circ\) where \(a\) is called the phase angle. This is when the graph of the function has been ...

The sine and cosine functions can be used to model fluctuations in temperature data throughout the year. An equation that can be used to model these data is of the ...

Trigonometric functions are often used in embedded systems. Motor drivecontrol applications such as the Park Transform, Clarke Transform, andPWMgeneration use trigonometric functions extensively.
