y = sin (.5x). The coefficient b in the above graph is 2, so the period of the sine curve changed by a factor of 1/2, making the new period Ï, or about 3.14. y = sin (.5x). For the above graph, the coefficient b = 1/2, so the period of the sine curve will be twice as long as it usually is, or 4 Ï. y = sin (3x).
