    Sal saves the day once again. Sometimes I wonder why the hell i go to class. Took my teacher 1.5 hrs to teach us this concept, didn't understand worth a damn, Sal has me straight after only watching half of the video.

    Honestly, I spent 8 hours trying to understand this today, and after watching this video, the numbers and letters made sense.

    How do I know it's a cos function and not a sin function shifted if I was given the graph and asked for the function

      Yared Mamo Evaluate the value of the graph at x=0, if answer is zero then it's a Sin function. Not zero, then Cos.

      cos (0)=1 while sin(0)=0 so basically if the point of the origin of the function is zero at y axis then it is a sin and if it is 1 at the y axis then it is cosine meaning that when you see that the function began from up to down and not the opposite then it is sine and if the opposite then it is a cosine

    Liked. Commented. Subscribed. Shared. Favorited. Embedded. Jizzed. Whatever the fuck else there is, I did. THis video changed my life; why cant my math teacher learn how to teach?

  • @JonVonNeumann

    no it's not because you'll notice that the graph went up between 1 and 2 and it was halfway between them sot it is 1 1/2 which is 3/2.

    to find the co-efficient of x in a cos function, do we use the same term as in the sine function (2π/Period)?

  • @misharockz1
    @misharockz1 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't understand how you figure out if its a sin or cos function. could you please explain that again?

    May you upload the link to your website please. I went in but couldn't find the examples with witch to practice. It would be so helpful, thank you very much.
    By the way great videos I love how you explain everything, from impossible to easy in just under 10m, amazing!

    this helped alot ^^ even tho im still alittle confused this makes more sense then what my teacher was saying.

    Hahaha, just kidding. I don't have a girlfriend ._.

    Dude!! I freakin love you! Do you know how long I've been sitting here reading through my trig book trying to figure this shiz out!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! LOL I reeeally appreciate it!! =D

    You (and everybody, because that was two years ago) should really consider showing videos like this to your math teacher. I know that some math teachers are evil incarnate, but some don't realize the material is difficult for you and would love to see it presented in a way that was easy for you to follow.

  • @katianovakk

    Looking only at the positive side of the graph, the cos looks like a valley and the sin looks like a hill and a valley.

  • @Bakugantsuvai1
    @Bakugantsuvai1 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    another way to find period use the formula 2pi/2(x2-x1) where you have the first maximum point and the first minimum formula.

  • @Capreeca
    @Capreeca 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @misharockz1 you can use either using certain transformations. however if you look at a peak to peak, its easiest to use cosine.

  • @wetim99
    @wetim99 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    so is a sin function always going to intersect at (0,0) ? it seems so because Asin0 will always be 0

    Could you show me how to do this without a graph, with just a word problem?

  • @HyperHorse4
    @HyperHorse4 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can't figure out b on my homework. The period is pi/2. How would you find it since its (2pi)/(pi/2)?

    • @Devansh-nu4qw
      @Devansh-nu4qw 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Guess you didn't think you'd get a reply here, huh? 😀
      Anyways, since the period is pi/2, you could just think about 2pi / (pi / 2) as how many (pi / 2) 's you could fit in a 2pi, or how many half bars of chocolate are there in 2 full bars of chocolate 🍫. The answer is 4, thus the equation for b becomes sin(4x).
      Hope that's useful. Sorry I couldn't have helped earlier.
