Here we will explore the behaviour of the sine function. In general we can write , where represents the amplitude of the wave (half the difference between the maximum and minimum values, represents the period of the wave, governs the horizontal translation of the wave and governs the vertical translation of the wave.
Move the sliders to get a feel for how changing the values of these parameters changes the shape and position of the sine wave.
