notes

A
  • A phase shift is a horizontal translation of a trig function.
    • Phase shifts occur when adding or subtracting from the x-term in the trig function.
    • A phase shift will move the graph of the function to the left or the right, depending on whether the constant is added
    or subtracted.
    • Adding or subtracting an entire period does not change the appearance of the graph.
