Graph of the Parent Sine Function y = sin x
• Recall that on the unit circle any point (x, y) can be written as (cos θ, sin θ)
• Also recall that the period of y = sin x is 2π• Thus, by taking the
y-coordinate of each point on the circumference of the unit circle we generate one cycle of y = sin x, 0 < x < 2π

Graph of the Parent Sine Function y = sin x (Continued)
• To graph any sine function we need to know:– A set of points on the parent function y = sin x• (0, 0), (π⁄2, 1), (π, 0), (3π⁄2, -1), (2π, 0)
– Naturally these are not the only points, but are often the easiest to manipulate
– The shape of the graph

Transformations of Sine & Cosine Graphs Affecting the y-axis
![Page 9: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Transformations of Sine & Cosine Graphs
• The graph of a sine or cosine function can be affected by up to four types of transformations– Can be further classified as affecting either the x-axis or y-
axis– Transformations affecting the x-axis:
• Period• Phase shift
– Transformations affecting the y-axis:• Amplitude
– Reflection• Vertical translation

![Page 10: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Amplitude
• Amplitude is a measure of the distance between the midpoint of a sine or cosine graph and its maximum or minimum point– Because amplitude is a distance, it MUST be positive– Can be calculated by averaging the minimum and
maximum values (y-coordinates)• Thus ONLY functions with a minimum AND maximum point
can possess an amplitude
• Represented as a constant a being multiplied outside of y = sin x or y = cos x– i.e. y = a sin x or y = a cos x

![Page 11: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
How Amplitude Affects a Graph
• Amplitude constitutes a vertical stretch– Multiply each y-coordinate by a– If a > 1
• The graph is stretched in the y-direction in comparison to the parent graph
– If 0 < a < 1• The graph is compressed
in the y-direction in comparison to the parent graph

How Amplitude Affects a Graph (Continued)
• Recall that the range of y = sin x and y = cos x is [-1, 1]– Thus the range of y = a sin x and y = a cos x becomes
[-|a|, |a|]

How Reflection Affects a Graph
• Reflection occurs when a < 0– Reflects the graph over the y-axis
13
![Page 14: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How Vertical Translation Affects a Graph
• Vertical Translation constitutes a vertical shift– Add d to each y-coordinate– If d > 0
• The graph is shifted up by d units in comparison to the parent graph
– If d < 0• The graph is shifted
down by d units in comparison to the parent graph

Transformations of Sine & Cosine Graphs Affecting the x-axis
![Page 16: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How Phase Shift Affects a Graph
• Phase shift constitutes a horizontal shift– Add -c to each x-coordinate (the opposite value!)– If +c is inside• The graph shifts to the
left c units when compared to the parent graph
– If -c is inside• The graph shifts to the
right c units when compared to the parent graph

![Page 17: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Period
• Recall that informally the period is the length required for a function or graph to complete one cycle of values
• Represented as a constant b multiplying the x inside the sine or cosine – i.e. y = sin(bx) or y = cos(bx)
17
![Page 18: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How Period Affects a Graph
• Changes in the period are horizontal shifts– Multiply each x-coordinate by 1⁄b
– If b > 1• The graph is compressed
resulting in more cycles in the interval 0 to 2π as com- pared with the parent graph
– If 0 < b < 1• The graph is stretched
resulting in less cycles in the interval 0 to 2π as compared with the parent graph

Graphing y = d + a sin(bx + c) or y = d + a cos(bx + c)
![Page 20: Graphs of Sine & Cosine Functions MATH 109 - Precalculus S. Rook](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e585503460f94b50c98/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Establishing the y-axis
• The key to graphing either y = d + a sin(bx + c) or y = d + a cos(bx + c) is to establish the graph skeleton– i.e. how the x-axis and y-axis will be marked
• Establish the y-axis– Determined by amplitude and vertical translation– Find a and d• Range for parent: -1 ≤ y ≤ 1• After factoring in amplitude: -|a| ≤ y ≤ |a| • After factoring in vertical translation:
-|a| + d ≤ y ≤ |a| + d

Establishing the x-axis
• Establish the x-axis (two methods)– Method I: Interval method• Solve the linear inequality 0 ≤ bx + c ≤ 2π for x– Generally:
• Left end of the interval is where one cycle starts (phase shift)• Right end of the interval is where one cycle ends• Period is obtained by subtracting the two endpoints
(right – left)

Establishing the x-axis (Continued)
– Method II: Formulas• P.S. = -c⁄b
• P = 2π⁄b
• End of a cycle occurs at P.S. + P– Divide the period into 4 equal subintervals to get a
step size– Starting with the phase shift, continue to apply the
step size until the end of the cycle is reached• These 5 points correlate to the 5 original points for the
parent graph

Graphing y = d + a sin(bx + c) or y = d + a cos(bx + c)
• To graph y = d + a sin(bx + c) or y = d + a cos(bx + c) :– Establish the y-axis– Establish the x-axis
• The x-values of the 5 points in the are the transformed x-values for the final graph
– Use transformations to calculate the y-values for the final graph
– Connect the points in a smooth curve in the shape of a sine or cosine – this is 1 cycle• Be aware of reflection when it exists
– Extend the graph if necessary
