Determine The Amplitude Of The Following Graph Calculator

Introduction & Importance

Determining the amplitude of a graph is crucial in understanding the range of values a function takes on. It’s the maximum distance from the midline (or mean) of the graph. This calculator helps you find that quickly and easily.

How to Use This Calculator

1. Enter the amplitude (a), phase shift (b), and vertical shift (c) values of your graph.
2. Click ‘Calculate’.
3. See your results below the calculator.

Formula & Methodology

The formula for a sine wave is y = a * sin(bx – c). The amplitude (a) is the maximum value of the function, which can be found using the formula: a = max(y) – min(y).
