TypeIdentify transformation from two graphs
DifficultyModerate -0.8 This is a straightforward C2 transformation question requiring students to identify simple transformations of y = sin x from given graphs. Students need only recognize basic transformations (likely vertical/horizontal shifts or stretches) by comparing key features like amplitude, period, and position - this is routine recall and pattern recognition with minimal problem-solving required.

5 Figs. 5.1 and 5.2 show the graph of \(y = \sin x\) for values of \(x\) from \(0 ^ { \circ }\) to \(360 ^ { \circ }\) and two transformations of this graph. State the equation of each graph after it has been transformed.
