A sine function has the following key features:
Period = 4
Amplitude = 4
Midline: y = 1
y-intercept: (0, 1)
The function is not a reflection of its parent function over the x-axis.
Use the sine tool to graph the function. The first point must be on the midline and the second point must be a maximum or minimum value on the graph closest to the first point.
Start with sine function
sin x
amplitude
4 sin x
Midline y=1
4 sin x +1
Period = 4 (usually sin period is 2pi .... 2pi/y = 4 y = pi/2)
4 sin ( pi/2 * x) +1
