A recent study on the wave patterns in Baler, Aurora took place. High tide is at 6:00 am with a height of 13 ft. The low tide was recorded at 3 ft at
6:00 PM. The wave pattern for the day followed a sinusoidal pattern with a
period of 24 hours, starting midnight.
(a) Sketch the graph of the wave heights.
(b) Which function (y = a sin b(x-c) + d ory a cos b(x - c) + d) will you
use to model this situation?
(c) What are the values of a, b, c, and d? Hint: a is the amplitude, period
c is the phase shift, and d is the mid height?
(d) What is the equation for your graph?
(e) How high is the wave at 12 noon?​
