What is the period of 2sin(4Θ)?
What is the period of 2sin(4Θ)?
The period of sinΘ is 2Π, so we set the new angle equal to the base period of 2Π and solve for Θ.
So 4Θ = 2Π and Θ = Π/2.
The period of sinΘ is 2Π, so we set the new angle equal to the base period of 2Π and solve for Θ.
So 4Θ = 2Π and Θ = Π/2.
