graph f(theta) = sin(theta) where -2pi < theta < 2pi

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

do you know how sin(theta) looks like?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no @xapproachesinfinity

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

well then you can't draw this if you no idea at all at least you should know some values for sin make a table of values btw -2pi to 2pi see if you can do it

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

here is what you need to know sin is a periodic function with period 2pi meaning it repeats every 2pi the same values ========= it is an odd function meaning it is symmeterical with respect to the origin (0,0)

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

so if you can draw it from 0 to pi you will be able to draw it from -2pi to 2pi

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

i mean 0 to 2pi

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

here is the graph http://www.had2know.com/images/graph-sinx.png

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

so you never seen that graph before?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have.

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

well that's what they are asking you to do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so they just want you to draw that graph?

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

to be able to know why that make sense you need to see what happens in these intervals: [0,pi/2] [pi/2,pi] [pi,2pi] once you found out the rest in just make use of symmetry and the period

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):

yes!
