[color=#1551b5]Submitted by Mr. Donald C. Albin Jr.[/color] Professional Educator [url]www.donaldalbin.99k.org[/url] Explore the relationships between the curves of trigonometric functions. [b]Directions[/b] [list] [*]Adjust the sliders, A, B, C, and α. [/list]
[b]Questions to promote inquiry[/b] - Describe the effect of the constants A, B, C, and α. [list] [*]Relate this to the transformations you learned in algebra class. [*]Why are sliders A & C shown vertical while sliders B & α are shown horizontal? [*]What are the appropriate units for A, B, C, and alpha;? [/list] - How many ways can you find to transform sine to cosine? Cosine to sine? [list] [*]Is there one transform method that works for both of them (sine to cosine and cosine to sine)? [*]Verify that this method works to transform tangent to cotangent and vice-versa. (It should!) [/list]
