Q. The graph of a sinusoidal function has a maximum point at (0,5) and then has a minimum point at (2π,−5).Write the formula of the function, where x is entered in radians.f(x)=□
Calculate Amplitude: The amplitude is half the distance between the maximum and minimum values.Amplitude = (5−(−5))/2=10/2=5.
Determine Period: The period is the distance between a maximum and the next minimum, which is 2π.Period = 2π.
Find B: To find B, use the formula Period=B2π.2π=B2πB=1.
Identify Vertical Shift: Since the maximum is at (0,5), the graph is a cosine function shifted up by 5. D=5.
Determine A: The function has not been horizontally or vertically flipped because it starts at a maximum and goes to a minimum, so A is positive.A=5.
Identify Horizontal Shift: There is no horizontal shift because the maximum is at x=0, so C=0.
Write Equation: Write the equation using the values found for A, B, C, and D.f(x)=5cos(1x+0)+5.
