Solutions to Odd-Numbered Exercises
1. The sine and cosine functions have the property that for a certain P. This means that the function values repeat for every P units on the x-axis. 3. The absolute value of the constant A (amplitude) increases the total range and the constant D (vertical shift) shifts the graph vertically. 5. At the point where the terminal side of t intersects the unit circle, you can determine that the sin t equals the y-coordinate of the point. 7. amplitude: ; period: 2π; midline: ; maximum: occurs at ; minimum: occurs at ; for one period, the graph starts at 0 and ends at 2π![A graph of (2/3)cos(x).
