Graphing Trigonometric Function Choice Board

Sine and Cosine

1. Work left to right as the arrow shows above!
2. Sections 1-5 on the choice board will be assigned in class over 5 class periods and will be finished as
homework.
3. Take note that each column states “Choose 2 out of 4” or “Choose 1 out of 2.” You must follow the
instructions and complete the minimum number of boxes in each column. You may do all of the
assignments if you would like extra practice.

Grading

1. Highlight the boxes of the choice board you complete.

2. For full credit you must:
a. Write out the original problem.
b. Complete graphs with:
i. accurate points
ii. Axes scaled (5 tick marks on the x-axis and 2 tick marks on the y-axis)
iii. Smooth curves
c. All work must be shown when performing calculations to find:
i. Phase shift
ii. The coefficient of x
3. Partial credit may be given for correct work.
4. If you have questions, do not hesitate to ask!
