Homework for Section 6.8
(From the textbook Algebra & Trigonometry, by Sullivan & Sullivan, Fourth Edition)
Bring these to class during the next lecture to be handed in. If you have any questions
about how to do something, bring those, too.
Please also realize that you're expected to do any and all work that you find necessary in
order to master this material – if you need to do additional (or different) problems on
your own in order to fully learn this material, please do so!

Homework Problems
ID Amplitude, Period, Phase Shift, and graph: #3, #7, #13
Graph, given Amplitude, Period, Phase Shift: #15, #17
6.8
Fitting a sine curve to real data: #21, #24
(Even if you can get your calculator to do this for you, don't ; you need
to do this by hand, and show your work each step of the way!)
You must do all the assigned problems, clearly and legibly. As a general rule of thumb,
you should use college-ruled paper, and write out your answers in print (rather than
cursive). If you tear the paper out of a spiral notebook, make sure that you remove the
'spaghetti edge'. Etc, etc. If you hand in work that, in the instructor's opinion, is
unprofessional, then the instructor reserves the right to dock you points.
