Translate the wave y = sin x by moving it in x+ direction, through pi/6 units, and get graph of y = sin(x-pi/6). Now, move this in y+ direction, through 1 unit, for y=sin(x-pi/6)+1.

Explanation:

y = sin ( x - pi/6) + 1 is a sine wave, with period 2p, , amplitude 1

unit, mean (level ) axis y =1 ( vertical phase shift 1) and horizontal

phase shift pi/6 units.,

Translate the wave y = sin x by moving it in x+ direction, through

pi/6 units, and get graph of y = sin(x-pi/6). Now, move this in y+

direction, through 1 unit, for y=sin(x-pi/6)+1.
