to graph the following functions and then make observations about the changes in the graphs caused
by changes in the equation to make a statement about y =Asin(Bx+C) + D.

Copy and Paste each graph into a SAVED copy of this doc.

1. y = 3sinx 0<x<3600
2. y = 5sinx
3. y = 0.25sinx
4. y = -2sinx
5. y = sin 4x
6. y = sin 1.5x
7. y = sin 3x
8. y = sin (-2x)
9. y = sin (x + 300)
10. y = sin (x – 450)
11. y = sin (x + π/3c) - π<x< π
12. y = sin (x - π/2c) 0<x<2 π
13. y = sinx + 1 0<x<360 0
14. y = sinx – 2
15. y = 4sin2x
16. y = -0.1sin(x + 600)
17. y = 6sinx – 3
18. y = sin(x + 450) + 0.5
19. y = sin(2x – 300)
20. y = 7sin(3x + 450) +1

Hence, without using a calculator, describe the graph of y = 3cos(2x – 60 0) – 1

And now describe what the graph of y =Asin(Bx+C) + D. where A,B,C & D are constants.

y = sin2x + 1
