The form you should use may be given to you in a question, but if not, any one will do. If in doubt, \(k\cos (x - \alpha )\) usually works. These worked examples show the processes you'll need to go ...

What do you think the graph of \(y = \cos 2x^\circ\) would look like? amplitude = 1, so the distance between the maximum and minimum values is 2 number of waves = 2 (period is 360˚ ÷ 2 = 180˚) graph ...

Using a relationship derived from a special case of DeMoivre's Theorem, we can express the sine and cosine functions as infinite series of generalized binomial coefficients. We will derive these ...
