How do you enter a complete sine function on a ti-83.

Thanks

Re: sine function
Goto 'Y=' type in 'SIN' 'X' and push 'Graph' , adjust your window accordingly.

Re: sine function
Thanks but I mean how do you enter asin(bx + c)+d.

Where abcd can be any values.

You can't, you need to fix a,b,c & d to graph the function. The TI-83 only allows for one unknown, that is x.

Re: sine function
You can enter then into the 'Y=' part just as you have shown in post #3, although you will need fix values for a,b,c, & d.

Re: sine function
Yes I know where to enter them its how ie 3sin(2pix + 2) + 4 are the brackets right.

Re: sine function
If your period is $2\pi$ then maybe its $3\sin2\pi (x + 2) + 4$ ? Hard to know without seeing the actual question.

Re: sine function
Ok so theres no standard way then also a bracket comes up as soon as you hit sin
it comes up like sin(

Re: sine function
so you cant enter sin 2pi(

2pi would be in the bracket.

Yep, then insert an extra pair, i.e sin(b(x+c))

If you mean you don't know what anthonye means by "complete sine function", then look at post #3 where he explains what he means.

$y = 4\sin[3(x + 2)] + 1$
