PLEASE HELP< I DONT KNOW HOW TO DO THIS: Describe each of the following properties of the graph of the sine function, f(theta) = sin(theta), and relate the property to the unit circle definition of sine. Amplitude Period Domain Range x-intercepts

OpenStudy (evoker):

Amplitude is 1, which would be the radius of the circle, period, is like going around the circle, domain would be what values you can input, range would be what heights it goes to. x-intercepts would be where the height is 0.

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

@evoker is that all of what would be needed to answer this question?

well you need the numbers also for the period is would be 2 pi domain would bi -inf to inf, and range would be -1 to 1. And finally the x-intercepts would be n*pi where n is an integer

OpenStudy (mathmale):

I'm afraid you're going to have to look up "graphs of trigonometric functions" and learn what all those variables represent. Unfortunately, you sound as though you have done zero preparation for answering this question or asking intelligent questions about it. Have you seen the word "amplitude" before? If so, share what you think it means, and then what you think it means when applied to the graph of the sine or cosine function.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Both the sine and the cosine functions are "periodic," which means that they repeat themselves exactly every time the independent variable is increased by the period. For example: the period of the sine function is 2pi, and so the graph of sin (x+2pi) has the saem shape and dimensions as the graph of sin x. What is the period in this case? And so on. Look up all of that terminology and then try again to answer this question.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

From previous experience you should know the meaning of the terms "domain," 'range," and "intercept." Apply those concepts here.

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

yes i know what they are the question is just confusing me
