Modeling periodic phenomena with trigonometric
functions
throughout any given month, the maximum and minimum ocean tides follow a periodic pattern. last year,
at a certain location on the california coast, researchers recorded the height of low tide, with respect to sea
level, each day during the month of july. the lowest low tide was first measured on july 11, at -1.4 feet. the
highest low tide was first measured on july 4, at 1.8 feet. the average low tide for the month of july was
measured to be 0.2 feet.
part e find the period of the function. explain it’s meaning in the context
part f find the vertical shift of the function. explain it’s meaning
part g find the phase shift of the function. explain it’s meaning in context
part h write the function for the curve from all of the key features you just found
part j what are the days of the month when the low tide is projected to be the average heights? what do you suppose a decimal value for a day in the month means?
part k the actual low tide height recorded on a given day could vary from the function created as a model. give some reasons for why you think this happens
