Such a shifting is referred to as a horizontal shift.sinx+π2=cos?(x) shift sine to the left to create cosinecosx-π2=sin?(x) shift cosine to the right to create sineIn mathematics, a horizontal shift may also be referred to as a phase shift B=1.Remember that with a horizontal shift you must be careful with identifying which way the graph will be translated (moved left or right)!Practice 1: Identify the horizontal shift of the sinusoidal functions given below:a. y=sin?(x-π)b. y=sin?(x+π)c=π so right π c=-π so left πc. y=2cos3x+π6-1d. y=-cosπ2x-3+4c=-π6 so left π6 c=3 so right 3How to Write Trig Equations From Graphs1.

The High Roller, a Ferris wheel in Las Vegas, Nevada, opened in March 2014. The 550 foot tall wheel has a diameter of 520 feet. A ride on one of its 28 passenger cars lasts 30 minutes, the time it takes the wheel to complete one full rotation. Riders board the passenger car at the bottom of the wheel. Assume that once the wheel is in motion, it maintains a constant speed for the 30-minute ride and is rotating in a counterclockwise direction.a) Sketch a graph of the height of a passenger car on the High Roller as a function of the time the ride began.b) Write a sinusoidal function H that represents the height of a passenger car t minutes after the ride begins.c) Explain how the parameters of your sinusoidal function relate to the situation.d) If you were on this ride, how high would you be above the ground after 20 minutes?2: Once in motion, a pendulums’ distance varies sinusoidally from 20 feet to 2 feet away from a wall every 16 seconds.a) Sketch the pendulum’s distance D from the wall over a 72 second interval as a function of time t.

In this problem, you will model what happens when Don Quixote battles a windmill, and the windmill wins. Suppose the center of the windmill is 20 feet off the ground, and the sails are 15 feet long. Don Quixote is caught on a tip of one of the sails. The sails are turning at a rate of one counterclockwise rotation every 60 seconds. a) Model Don Quixote’s height, H, above the ground as a function of time, t in seconds, since he was closest to the ground.Cosine → starts below the midline! y=AcosBx+C5400675914400005419725000Midline: y=20 Max=35 Min=5 Period=60seconds a=-15 y=-15cosπ30x+20c=20 B=2π60=π30 b) After 1 minute and 40 seconds, Don Quixote fell off a sail and straight down to the ground.

They are caused by underwater earthquakes or explosions. The water level in a tsunami will initially fall below its normal level, then rise an equivalent amount above the normal level, finally returning back to its normal level. Assume the period of this cycle to be 18 minutes. A tsunami is observed from a coastal pier where the normal depth of the water is 10 feet. Following the cycle pattern described above, the tsunami has an amplitude of 20 feet above the normal water depth. The depth of the water will vary sinusoidally with time.291147545275500a) Graph one full cycle of the wave, with time in minutes on the x-axis and water height in feet on the y-axis.Period=18 minutesAmp =20Midline at: y=10Max=10+20=30Min=10-20=-10b) Write a sine function of the form fx=AsinBx+D to model this tsunami.Graph a sine wave…it goes down first!D=10 A=-20 y=-20sinπ9x+10B=2π18=π9 c) Predict the depth of the water 12 minutes after the tsunami first reaches the pier, to the nearest tenth of a foot.Plug x=12 in the equationy=-20sinπ9*12+10=27.3°d) What will be the minimum depth of the water during this cycle, and when will it occur? y=-10Example 4: An athlete was having her blood pressure monitored during a workout.

Our brains analyze the amplitude and frequency of these pressure waves.A speaker usually consists of a paper cone attached to an electromagnet. By sending an oscillating electric current through the electromagnet, the paper cone can be made to vibrate. By adjusting the current, the amplitude and frequency of vibrations can be controlled.The following graph shows the pressure intensity (I) as a function of time (x), in seconds, of the pressure waves emitted by a speaker set to produce a single pure tone.a.
