Find an equation for a sinusoidal function that has period 2Ο, amplitude 1, and contains the point (0,0). Write your answer in the form f(x)=Asin(Bx+C)+D, where A, B, C, and D are real numbers.
Q. Find an equation for a sinusoidal function that has period 2Ο, amplitude 1, and contains the point (0,0). Write your answer in the form f(x)=Asin(Bx+C)+D, where A, B, C, and D are real numbers.
Find B: We know: Period = 2ΟFind the value of B.Period: (2Ο)/B2Ο=(2Ο)/BB=(2Ο)/(2Ο)B=1
Function with A=1: Since the amplitude is 1, A=1. Now we have: f(x)=1sin(1x+C)+D
Find D: We need to find the values of C and D. Since the function contains the point (0,0), we can plug in x=0 and f(x)=0 to find D.f(0)=1sin(1β 0+C)+D0=1sin(C)+D
Choose C=0: Since sin(C) can range from β1 to 1, and we want the function to pass through (0,0), the most straightforward choice is to make sin(C)=0. This happens when C is an integer multiple of Ο. To keep the function simple, we choose C=0.
0=1sin(0)+D sin(C)0 sin(C)1
Write in Amplitude-Phase Form: We found:A=1B=1C=0D=0Write the equation in amplitude-phase form.Substitute values of A, B, C, and Df(x)=1sin(1x+0)+0=sin(x)
