Amplitude Frequency
1. **Problem Statement:**
Determine the values of scalars $A$ and $\omega$ for the trigonometric function $$y = A \sin(\omega x + 30^\circ)$$ given the graph of the wave for $$-90^\circ \leq x \leq 90^\circ$$.
2. **Understanding the function:**
The general form is $$y = A \sin(\omega x + \phi)$$ where:
- $A$ is the amplitude (maximum absolute value of $y$).
- $\omega$ is the angular frequency, related to the period $T$ by $$T = \frac{360^\circ}{\omega}$$ since $x$ is in degrees.
- $\phi$ is the phase shift, here given as $30^\circ$.
3. **Finding amplitude $A$:**
From the graph, the maximum value of $y$ is approximately 2 and the minimum is -2.
Amplitude is half the distance between max and min:
$$A = 2$$
4. **Finding angular frequency $\omega$:**
The wave completes one full cycle from $-90^\circ$ to $90^\circ$, so the period $T$ is:
$$T = 90^\circ - (-90^\circ) = 180^\circ$$
Using the period formula:
$$T = \frac{360^\circ}{\omega} \implies \omega = \frac{360^\circ}{T} = \frac{360^\circ}{180^\circ} = 2$$
5. **Final answer:**
$$A = 2, \quad \omega = 2$$
These values satisfy the given graph characteristics.
