Find Amplitude, Period, and Phase Shift y=sin(x)+2
Problem
Solution
Identify the standard form of the trigonometric function, which is
y=A*sin(B*(x−C))+D Determine the amplitude by looking at the coefficient
A in front of the sine function. SinceA=1 the amplitude is|A|=1 Calculate the period using the formula
P=(2*π)/|B| Here, the coefficient ofx isB=1 soP=(2*π)/1=2*π Find the phase shift by identifying the value of
C inside the argument of the sine function. Since there is no horizontal shift added to or subtracted fromx C=0 Note that the
+2 represents a vertical shiftD=2 which does not affect the amplitude, period, or phase shift.
