Guidelines for Sketching Graphs of Sine and Cosine Functions To graph y = A sin( x) or y = A cos( x), with > 0, follow these steps: Step 1: Use the amplitude to determine that maximum and minimum values of the function. Step 2: Find the period, . Then divide the interval [0, ] into four equal subintervals. a) Find the midpoint of the interval by adding the x-values of the endpoints and dividing by 2. b) Find the midpoints of the two subintervals found in a), using the same procedure. Step 3: Make the table of these subintervals to obtain five key points on the graph. Step 4: Connect these points with a sinusoidal graph to obtain the graph of one circle and extend the graph in each direction to make it complete.
