And another one just for good measureA hot-air balloon is being blown due east from point P andtraveling at a constant height of 800ft. The angle y is formed bythe ground and the line of vision P to the balloon. This anglechanges as the balloon travels.

21 siny x x
22 siny x x
23 siny x
24 siny xFirst, put all four functions into your calculator, then you can turntheir graphs on and off as needed…

Only the graph of thisthird function exhibitsperiodic behavior overthe given interval!!!
Example 2: Verifying periodicity algebraically
Verify algebraically that is periodic anddetermine its period graphically.

First, recall the period of the basic sine function
sin 2 sinx x Next, recall the fact that for all x.(Can you explain why this is true???)

3sinf x x
First, a reminder note regarding notation:
3sinf x xA function like is more frequently written as
3sinf x x(but this shorthand notation will not be recognized by a calculator)
Practice ProblemsProve algebraically that is periodic and findthe period graphically. State the domain and range and sketcha graph showing two periods.

Wherever the basic tangent function is defined, f is also defined.
Domain: All reals except odd multiples of
tanf x x
2The range of the basic tangent function is all reals, but f is alwaysgreater than or equal to zero. (why???) Range: 0,
The period of f is the same as the basic tangent function:

, Domain:
The range of the basic sine function is –1 to 1 (inclusive), but g isalways greater than or equal to zero.
Practice ProblemsThe graph of oscillates between twoparallel lines. What are the equations of the two lines?
The basic sine function oscillates between –1 and 1, so f(x)must oscillate between 0.5x – 1 and 0.5x + 1…
