Sketch one cycle of the cosine function. y = 2 cos 2 theta
So the question ask to sketch the one cycle of the cosine function where as the y = 2cos theta. So base on the function, its just and ordinary graph but the data is not the same. The line begins at the positive 2 in the Y axis then goes down with constant magnitude after it reach its limit it goes up again with constant magnitude and its limit in negative y axis is -2.
Answer:
One cycle is of period π.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Cosine function \(y=2\cos 2\theta\)
To find : Sketch one cycle of the cosine function ?
Solution :
The general form of cosine function is \(y=a \cos (bx-c)+d\)
On comparing with \(y=2\cos 2\theta\)
a=2 , b=2 , c=0, d=0
Where, Amplitude is \(|a|=|2|\)
Amplitude = 2
\(\text{Period}=\frac{2\pi}{|B|}\)
\(\text{Period}=\frac{2\pi}{|2|}\)
\(\text{Period}=\pi\)
Phase shift and vertical shift is zero.
Therefore, One cycle is of period π.
