Consider the following graph of a transformation of a trigon
Consider the following graph of a transformation of a trigonometric function.
(a) Is the function even, odd, or neither even nor odd?
(b) State the period.
(c) Which of the following functions corresponds to the graph?
A. f (x) = – cos(x) – 1
B. f (x) = cos(2x) – 3
C. f (x) = – sin(x) – 2
D. f (x) = sin(2x) – 2
Solution
As we see that their is a vertical displacement of -2 units and the given graph is of sine function
Therefore the correct option is
f(x)=-sinx-2
And if f(-x)=f(x then the given function is even. If f(-x)=-f(x),then the given function is odd else it is neither
Lets check out f(-x)
f(-x)=-sin(-x) -2= sinx-2
which is neither equal to f(x) nor to -f(x). Therefore it is neither even nor odd
For period we have to use a sin(bx-c) + d
where period= 2pi/b
we have equation -sinx -2
Here b=1
Therefore period =2pi/1=2pi
