How to find the period of a graphed function?

If you’ve ever looked at a graph of some function you know how confusing it can be to find the period of a graph. Fortunately, there is a very easy way to find the period of a graph. Start by finding the function’s domain and range. You can do this by looking at the domain and range of the function yourself, or by using the Domain and Range tool. Once you have this information, you can use the period of a function calculator.

How to find the period of a linear hyperbolic function?

A linear hyperbolic function has a period of 𝛋 or 2π. If you graph a hyperbolic function, you can use the period of the graph to determine the function's period. An example of a graph with period 𝛋 is the hyperbolic cosine function. A graph of the hyperbolic cosine function is shown in the figure.

How to find the period of a linear function?

A linear function is a graph that passes through the origin. The period of a linear function is the vertical distance traveled by the graph from the origin to the point where the graph intersects the x-axis. If the graph passes through the origin more than once, then the distance between the first intersection point and the origin is the period.

How to find the period of a exponential equation?

One of the most common functions graphed in the standard curriculum is an exponential function (y = a^x). The period of an exponential function is equal to the natural logarithm of one raised to the power of the function’s amplitude. To find the period of an exponential function, use the calculator to find one of the roots of the equation. Take the natural logarithm of that number to find the period.

How to find the period of a linear exponential function?

A graph of a linear exponential function will always look like a line that slopes upwards or downwards. If you want to find the period of a line, you can use the period of a function that is similar to the line but is in the same family of functions, the line. The period of a line is equal to the period of the natural logarithm function. Use the period calculator to find the period of the line from a graph.
