Introduction

• There are many things that occur periodically.

Phenomena like rotation of the planets and
comets, high and low tides, and yearly change
of the seasons follow a periodic pattern.
• In this lesson, we will graph circular functions
and we will see that they are periodic in nature.

Philosophical Views Integration from the Teacher:
Graphs of Sine and Cosine
The graphs of sine and cosine can be found everywhere.
It is present in the radio waves, electrical currents, tides,
and musical tones. When we look at seismic waves on a
map of what is happening beneath us, we can see this
graph. The graphs of the sine and cosine both have the hills
and valleys in a repeating pattern. In life, this pattern
signifies the ups and downs that people face.

Philosophical Views Integration from the Teacher:
Graphs of Sine and Cosine
We see the sine curves the way we react on things
naturally like the occurring phenomena. Take water
waves as an example; when waves have more energy,
the more vigorous they go up and down. The
amplitude - the distance from the resting position is an
indication of the amount of energy that the waves
contain.

Philosophical Views Integration from the Teacher: Graphs of
Sine and Cosine
In the same manner, when people have low amplitude,
they have low energy to fight against the challenges that
they are facing. With them becoming less energetic, the
less vigorous the graphs go up or down. The graph of the
sine at the beginning shows the people when they are at
the top while the beginning of the cosine shows the
bottom. The movement depends on the energy of the
person. The graph may go down or may rise.
