<h1 align="center">Sine Function - Graph Exercise</h1>
|
|
<p align="center"><img src="images/sine.gif" width="360" height="173" border="1" alt="sine wave" /><br />
|
|
<span class="Larger">The Sine Function produces a very beautiful curve,<br />
|
|
but don't take our word for it, make your own!</span></p>
|
|
<h2>Sine Function</h2>
|
|
<p>First, read the page on <a href="sine-cosine-tangent.html">Sine, Cosine and Tangent</a>.</p>
|
|
<p>Now you will know that the sine of any angle is the length of the far side of the triangle (the "opposite")
|
|
divided by the long side (the "hypotenuse"):</p>
|
|
<p align="center"><img src="algebra/images/adjacent-opposite-hypotenuse.svg" alt="adjacent opposite hypotenuse" /><br />
|
|
<span class="Larger">Sine of <b>θ</b> = Opposite / Hypotenuse</span></p>
|
|
<h2>Draw Triangles</h2>
|
|
<p>To make the graph, we need to calculate the sine for different angles, then put those points on a graph, and
|
|
then "join the dots".</p>
|
|
<h3>Step 1: Draw the Angled Lines</h3>
|
|
<p>Place a mark at the center of a piece of paper, then, using a <a href="geometry/protractor-using.html">protractor</a>, mark every 15 degrees from 0°
|
|
to 180° in a semi-circle. Then rotate the protractor and mark from 180° around to the start again. Then
|
|
draw lines radiating from the center to each of your marks so that you end up with an illustration like this:</p>
|
|
<div align="center"><a href="images/radiating-15-large.gif"><img src="images/radiating-15-small.gif" width="162" height="166" border="0" alt="radiating 15 small" /></a>
|
|
<br />
|
|
Lines at 15° (click to enlarge)</div>
|
|
<p>Or, you can click on the above illustration, then print out the result.</p>
|
|
<h3>Step 2: Draw and Measure the Triangles</h3>
|
|
<p>We can now turn each of those lines into a triangle, example:</p>
|
|
<p align="center"><img src="images/radiating-triangle-1.gif" width="182" height="131" border="0" alt="radiating triangle 1" /></p>
|
|
<h2>Measure Triangles</h2>
|
|
<p>When you have completed each triangle, it is simply a matter of measuring the lines. Remember that the sine
|
|
is <i>the length of the line opposite the angle</i> <b>divided by</b> <i>the hypotenuse</i> (which should all
|
|
be the same length if you have drawn it well) </p>
|
|
<p align="center"><img src="algebra/images/sine-graph-triangle.svg" alt="radiating triangle 2" /></p>
|
|
<p>Write all your measurements in a table. This is what I got, but your measurements may be different:</p>
|
|
<table width="433" border="0" align="center">
|
|
<tr bgcolor="#FF99FF">
|
|
<td width="59">
|
|
<div align="center"><b>Angle</b></div> </td>
|
|
<td width="102">
|
|
<div align="center"><b>Opposite</b></div> </td>
|
|
<td width="96">
|
|
<div align="center"><b>Hypotenuse</b></div> </td>
|
|
<td width="158">
|
|
<div align="center"><b>Opposite / Hypotenuse</b></div> </td>
|
|

|

|

|
|
</tr>
|
|
<tr bgcolor="#FFCCFF">
|
|
<td width="59">
|
|
<div align="center">30°</div> </td>
|
|
<td width="102">
|
|
<div align="center">43 mm</div> </td>
|
|
<td width="96">
|
|
<div align="center">86 mm</div> </td>
|

</tr>
|
|
<tr>
|
|
<td colspan="4">
|
|
<div align="center">etc ...</div> </td>
|
|
</tr>
|
|
</table>
|
|
<p>You can print a table ready to fill in <a href="sine-graph-table.html">here</a>.</p>
|
|
<p><b>Important: When the "opposite" line goes downwards it is negative.</b></p>
|
|
<p><i>Tip: if you have drawn it well, you can take advantage of the symmetry of 0-90, 90-180, 180-270 and 270-360.</i></p>
|
|
<h2>Graph The Results</h2>
|
|
<p>Get some graph paper and prepare it by scaling off 0 to 360 in 15 increments along the x-axis, and scaling
|
|
off -1 to +1 on the y-axis. You can use your own graph paper, or print out <a href="graph-5x6.html">this graph
|
|
paper</a></p>
|
|
<p>Now plot each point from the table on the graph.</p>
|
|
<p>Then join the dots as neatly as you can.</p>
|
|
<h2>Result</h2>
|
|
<p>The result should look something like the graph at the very top. </p>
|
|
<p>But you have done much more than draw a nice curve. You have :</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>learned about one of the most important functions in mathematics</li>
|
|
<li>learned that you don't have to believe what people say - you can try it for yourself.</li>
|
|
<li>had experience plotting graphs</li>
|
|
<li>learned how symmetry can save effort</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Hope you enjoyed !</p>
