Answer:

Check

Explanation:

The high and low points repeat in a pattern.

The cycle repeats at equal time intervals.

The swinging motion is smooth, unabrupt.

Answer:

Period of 2π

Explanation:

The graph of sine starts at zero on the y axis while that of cosine starts at the point 1 as sin 0=0 at t=0 and cos 0=1 at t=0. We say the cosine curve is a sine curve which is shifted to the left by
\frac{\pi}{{2}}\

​The basic sine and cosine functions have a period of 2π (in radians). The period is the time it takes to go through one complete cycle. It means that after every complete cycle, the graph repeats itself over and over again..
