It's a cos wave and a sin wave

bloody triggernomitry
or how you spell it dave


EDIT: the calculator i used for Alevel math for these i stole off a 12 year old, how brilliant, £8 saved

if i coulf be botherd id work out
the line equation o those graphs...

but i cant be arsed

hmmm
and that would take A LOT of working out

pi/2 out of phase!!!

No...
a - Cos X
b - Sin X
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Wed 9 Nov 2005, 23:22, archived)

or
sin x and sin (x+ pi/2)

Pfeh, my formula is nicer
I rule this game damnit!
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Wed 9 Nov 2005, 23:27, archived)

not really
just need 3 points on a graph

2 intercections of X

and 1 intersection of Y

and you get somthing like Y=X³ =(a x pi)X²+(b x pi)X+c

good luck

ta
but im not going to do it as i cant be arsed typing out the HTML to get sup script

Trust me, you can't do it that way.
This isn't a polynomial
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Wed 9 Nov 2005, 23:24, archived)

that may be true actually
tis just a sign-wave graph

polynomial: -

Nicely doodled
Paint?
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Wed 9 Nov 2005, 23:29, archived)

yup
let stop this thread...

much to late for maths talk
( Sir T. Skellington LIMES ARE FOR CUNTS!, Wed 9 Nov 2005, 23:32, archived)

err...
cos(x) = 1 - x^2/2! + x^4/4! - ... (a polynomial)

sin(x) = x - x^3/3! + x^5/5! - ... (a polynomial)

aicmfp again!

In a polynomial the powers have to be positive integers
Gimmie my five pounds back you fraud!
(Guineapiggy Fuzzeh!, Wed 9 Nov 2005, 23:45, archived)

i think i should be charging for these lessons...
a) powers don't have to be positive for it to be classed as a polynomial (I think)
b) they aren't even negative in the above.

piss poor!
The first is the differential of the second.

As proved by a complex Euclidian representation of either.
