Understanding Sine Graph Transformations

The video tutorial explains the concept of shifting sine graphs, specifically focusing on the transformation of sine(x) to sine(x+30). It demonstrates how this shift affects the graph's position and how to find solutions for the equation sine(x+30) = 0.5. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of accuracy in graphing and provides a method to verify solutions using a calculator. It also discusses the implications of shifts on the number of solutions within a given domain.

What happens to the sine graph when it is shifted 30 degrees to the left?

• It moves 30 degrees to the right.

• It moves 30 degrees to the left.

• It flips upside down.

• It remains unchanged.

When the sine graph is shifted, what happens to the parts of the graph that go outside the domain?

• They become negative.

• They reappear on the opposite side of the domain.

• They disappear completely.

• They double in size.

How many solutions are typically expected when a sine graph is shifted?

• One solution

• Two solutions

• Three solutions

• Four solutions

What is the effect of adding 360 degrees to a solution of a sine equation?

• It doubles the solution.

• It has no effect.

• It creates a new solution.

• It invalidates the solution.

Why is it important to master graphical methods in solving trigonometric equations?

• Because they are the only way to solve equations.

• Because they provide a visual understanding and are necessary for accuracy.

• Because they are easier than algebraic methods.

• Because they are faster than using a calculator.

What is the significance of the domain in solving sine equations?

• It has no significance.

• It expands the range of possible solutions.

• It only affects cosine equations.

• It limits the range of possible solutions.

What is the result of adjusting the sine graph by 10 degrees?

• The graph shifts 10 degrees to the left.

• The graph shifts 10 degrees to the right.

• The graph remains unchanged.

• The graph flips upside down.

How can you verify the solutions of a sine equation graphically?

• By solving algebraically.

• By using a calculator.

• By guessing the solutions.

• By drawing the graph and checking intersections.

What happens to a solution that is outside the domain when solving a sine equation?

• It is ignored.

• It becomes a negative solution.

• It is adjusted to fit within the domain.

• It is doubled.

What is the correct approach if a solution is 10 degrees too large?

• Add 10 degrees to the solution.

• Subtract 10 degrees from the solution.

• Ignore the solution.

• Multiply the solution by 10.
