This is a graph of the normal sine function "flipped over" with an amplitude of 2 and shifted to the right by pi/2 units. So, since the normal sine graph has x intercepts at 0 ± n2pi and pi ± n2pi, this graph will have x intercepts at pi/2 ± n2pi and [(3 pi)/ 2] ± n2pi ....where n is just an integer
