Question Type 1: From graphs of trigonometric functions, finding the amplitude and period of the trigonometric curves Bootcamps
Question 1
Skill question
The graph of y=g(x) oscillates between −2 and 2, completing three full cycles over the interval [0,6π]. Find the amplitude and period.
Question 2
Skill question
A cosine curve has amplitude 3 and period π. Write down these values.
Question 3
Skill question
The graph of y=k(x) oscillates between −7 and 1, and one cycle spans 8 units on the x-axis. What are the amplitude and period?
Question 4
Skill question
From a graph, you observe that a sine curve has consecutive peaks at x=1 and x=4. The maximum value is 6 and the minimum is 2. Determine the amplitude and period.
Question 5
Skill question
The function y=h(x) has equation y=4sin(5x). Without graphing, state its amplitude and period.
Question 6
Skill question
From a plotted cosine graph, you see it peaks at y=10 and troughs at y=4; the next peak occurs 5 units later in x. Find amplitude and period.
Question 7
Skill question
A sine wave has its first minimum at x=2 and its next minimum at x=8. The vertical range of the graph is 12. Determine the amplitude and period.
Question 8
Skill question
A cosine curve passes through (0,−3), reaches a maximum of 3 at x=2π, then next returns to −3 at x=π. Find the amplitude and period.
Question 9
Skill question
A sine curve reaches its maximum of 5 at x=6π and its next minimum of −5 at x=65π. Determine the amplitude and period of this curve.
Question 10
Skill question
The graph of y=m(x) shows three complete oscillations between x=−π and x=2π. The maximum is 4 and the minimum is 0. Determine the amplitude and period.
