Writing Sine and Cosine Equations from Graphs

  • Given a graph of a sine or cosine function (really, what's the difference if you just have the graph?), we write multiple sine and cosine functions that generate the graph. We find the sinusoidal axis (midline), amplitude, period, increment, and use the patterns to write the equations. Two full examples are covered in detail.

    • @turksvids
      @turksvids  6 лет назад

      All the forms for any one graph are equivalent so it kind of doesn't matter which you use. When I ask these questions in class I usually specify the starting point that I want someone to use or say that I want one positive and one negative of both sine and cosine or something like that.

    How do you get phase shift?

    • @turksvids
      @turksvids  5 лет назад +1

      I take everything in the argument of the trig function, set it to zero, and solve.
      So if you have sin(3x-pi/4) + 2, I take 3x-pi/4 = 0 so x = pi/12. The curve is shifted pi/12 to the right. If you had -12cos(5x+3pi/8) + 7, I take 5x+3pi/8 = 0 so x = -3pi/40. The curve is shifted 3pi/40 to the left.

      I had to pick an x-coordinate for a starting point for the pattern. Looking at the graph the key points in the pattern are imiMi (intersect, minimum, intersect, Maximum, intersect). Using 0 lets you start at the beginning of the pattern. I try to explain it around [3:18] in the video.

  • @bunnydream2087
    @bunnydream2087 6 лет назад

    for the increment, why is it found by period/4 and not period/5? i thought it would be period/5 because there are 5 main points that are used to graph one period, and 5 total increments needed to make one period--- as you stated at the end of the vid

    • @turksvids
      @turksvids  6 лет назад +2

      We want to break the full period into four equal pieces so we divide by 4. If you take a segment that has its two end points that gives you two points. to cut that in half takes another point, so you're up to 3 points. Now divide each of the two segments you have in half. That gives you four segments of equal length and 5 points to make it happen. So that's a kind of long winded explanation of why it takes 5 points to cut it into four equal pieces.

    why is the x inside the parentheses?

    • @turksvids
      @turksvids  5 лет назад +1

      When then x is in parentheses, B(x-C), the horizontal shift is just C units.
      If the x is not in parentheses, Bx-C, then the horizontal shift is C/B, which is a bit more confusing and a little more difficult to work with.
      If you're teacher/professor wants you to not have B(x-C) in your final answer you can always just follow what the video describes and then distribute the B at the end. So something like pi/2(x-3) would become pi/2*x - 3pi/2.
      hope this helps!

    i've never used pi while making the equation for graphs... Why are you using pi?

    • @turksvids
      @turksvids  4 года назад

      Without rewatching the video I'd say I'm using pi because the period of the function is not a multiple of pi, but is instead probably just an integer. If the period is 10, for example, then B = 2pi/10 = pi/5, so you'll have to use pi when you write your equation. It's really common to have to do that since trig functions often model things that move over time and time is usually not measured in terms of pi.

    • @turksvids
      @turksvids  2 года назад

      Usually when I do these I pick C and then base the pattern of the graph on that. So if I pick a C value and it's at an i and goes to an M, then I'm looking at positive sine. If I pick a C and it's a minimum, then it's a negative cosine, etc. So mostly you pick C and go from there. (If you're in a class the teacher would probably pick C for you...) Hope this helps! Let me know if it doesn't.

    Maybe It's just me, being older and such, but man! you need to slow down on your verbal speed! A lecture at warp-factor 9 is almost impossible to understand. Not only that, but some of your written notes on screen are not comprehensible! I'm sure you understand extremely well what you are doing, but the reason we viewers are watching is because we don't.

      Hit the gear and slow it down if it's moving too fast for you. Or perhaps just watch another, different, slower video? I find pointing out to others that they can do that is a bit easier than me changing how I talk. I change the speed on tons of videos. Never thought to tell the creator to change...

    • @turksvids
      @turksvids  4 года назад

      I was trying to find a "good" start and stop point for counting the periods of the function. Starting at 0, which is a lattice point where horizontal and vertical scale marks meet, I looked on period away and it wasn't a lattice point, did it again and it still wasn't, and did it a third time and it did hit a lattice point, which was at x = 10. So to get from 0 to 10 I had to go three periods, which told me that each period must take 10/3. Hope this helps!
