How would you find the period of this equation y = 5 sin 2x? Trigonometry Graphing Trigonometric Functions Translating Sine and Cosine Functions 1 Answer Daniel L. Mar 25, 2018 See explanation. Explanation: The period of a function f(x)=sin(ax) is a times smaller than the period of sinx, so here the period is: T=(2pi)/2=pi Answer link Related questions How do you graph sine and cosine functions when it is translated?
