Episode 10 — Trigonometric Functions

Effect of q on y = sinx + q

Learners will be able to:

• Identify the effect of adding a constant q to the function y = sin(x). • Explain how the graph of y = sin(x) - 2 is related to the graph of y = sin(x). • Describe the change in range that occurs when q = 2. • Calculate the new turning points of the sine curve after translation by q. • Identify the aspects of the function that remain unchanged, including amplitude and period.
