How do you find the phase shift of the trig function y=4sin(pieX+2)-5

The phase shift is the value of the angle when the variable
in the angle is zero.

The angle in the sin function in this equation is (pi X + 2).

When the variable 'X' is zero, the angle is 2 .

So the phase shift of this sin function is 2 (of whatever
the unit of the angle is ... 2 degrees, 2 radians, etc.)
