Maple Tool 1

This tool is designed to be used with Activity 1 in Section 5.4.

 The constants alpha  and beta  determine the graphing window, with t  varying between -alpha  and alpha  and y  between -beta  and beta .

>    alpha:=4*Pi;
beta:=2;

>   

Vary the constants A , B , C , and delta  one at a time. (We use delta  in place of D  because D  is a protected symbol in Maple.)  You may need to change the size of the viewing window as you change the constants.

>    A:=0;
B:=1;
C:=1;
delta:=0;
f:=t->A+B*sin(C*(t-delta));
plot(f(t), t=-alpha..alpha, view=[-alpha..alpha,-beta..beta], labels=[t,y], thickness=2);
