Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related Pre CAL.88 Modeling Periodic Phenomena with Sinusoidal Functions skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Daylight hours are modeled by a sinusoid with midline 12 hours and amplitude 2.5 hours. The period is 365 days. The minimum daylight occurs on day 355. Which model fits H(d)?

AH(d) = 12 + 2.5 cos((2π/365)(d - 355))

BH(d) = 12 + 2.5 sin((2π/365)(d - 355))

CH(d) = 12 - 2.5 sin((2π/365)(d - 355))

DH(d) = 12 - 2.5 cos((2π/365)(d - 355))

Solution & Explanation:Minimum at d=355 means H(355)=12−2.5. Since cos(0)=1, using 12 − 2.5 cos((2π/365)(d−355)) produces the minimum at d=355 and period 365.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Consider y = 2 cos((π/2)(x - c)) + 5. If the function has a minimum at x = 1, what is c?

Ac = 0

Bc = 1

Cc = 3

Dc = -1

Solution & Explanation:A cosine minimum occurs when its angle is π. Solve (π/2)(1 − c) = π → 1 − c = 2 → c = −1.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A model is y(t) = 10 + 6 sin((2π/14)(t - 3)). What is the time of the first maximum after t = 3?

Solution & Explanation:The period is 14. Starting at t=3, the sine is at the midline and increasing, so the first maximum occurs after 1/4 period: 14/4 = 3.5. Thus t = 3 + 3.5 = 6.5.
