Part 1: Using complete sentences, compare the key features and graphs of sine and cosine. What are their similarities and differences?

Part 2: Using these similarities and differences, how would you transform f(x) = 4 sin(2x - π) + 3 into a cosine function in the form f(x) = a cos(bx - c) + d?

can you compare the sin(x) with the cos(x)?

thats what i need help with...

anonymous · Answer

we are using radians to measure the angle.

if we draw a circle, and measure the angle from the x-axis
|dw:1436458116835:dw|
notice that x value will be the cos(x)  and the y-value the sin(x)
