something that you have to know is...
so important if you want to understand the next step
How to define period, amplitude, phase shift and vertical shift of a periodic function?'
Period--- When does it start to repeat? For instance, for period of sin(x) is 2*pi because it repeats every 2*pi.
Amplitude--- How high does the graph go? In other words, the maximum value minus the minimum value. For instance, the amplitude of sin(x) is 2 because it goes from 1 to -1.
Phase Shift--- How far is the graph shifted over to the right? For example, the phase shift of sin(x) is 0 because it is not moved at all in the x direction.
Vertical Shift--- How far is the graph shifted up? For example, the vertical shift of sin(x) +1 is 1 because the graph is shifted up 1 unit of sin(x).
Amplitude--- How high does the graph go? In other words, the maximum value minus the minimum value. For instance, the amplitude of sin(x) is 2 because it goes from 1 to -1.
Phase Shift--- How far is the graph shifted over to the right? For example, the phase shift of sin(x) is 0 because it is not moved at all in the x direction.
Vertical Shift--- How far is the graph shifted up? For example, the vertical shift of sin(x) +1 is 1 because the graph is shifted up 1 unit of sin(x).
