Understanding Trigonometric Functions

The video tutorial explains how to determine an equation for a trigonometric function using a table of values. It covers plotting points on a coordinate plane, identifying sine and cosine functions, sketching the midline, and using the sine function to model the graph. The tutorial also details finding the values of A, B, D, and C, and writing the equation of the sine function. The process is compared to using the cosine function, highlighting differences in phase shift and reflection.

What is the first step in determining an equation for a trigonometric function from a table of values?

• Identify the maximum and minimum values

• Plot the points on a coordinate plane

• Calculate the amplitude

• Determine the period of the function

What is the final equation of the sine function derived in the video?

• F(X) = 6 sin(PI/4 (X+2)) + 2

• F(X) = -6 sin(PI/4 (X-2)) - 2

• F(X) = 6 cos(PI/4 (X-2)) + 2

• F(X) = -6 cos(PI/4 (X+2)) - 2
