  1. A RipStik was swizzled across a large sheet of paper. The swizzle wave can be seen in the diagram below.
    RipStik swizzle sine wave 6 cm 32 cm in 0.32 seconds x RipStik rider

    λ = _______________ Write the wavelength λ of the RipStik swizzle wave in centimeters.
  2. a = _______________ Calculate the amplitude a of the RipStik swizzle wave.
  3. τ = _______________ Calculate the period τ of the RipStik swizzle wave.
  4. b = _______________ Given that b= 2π τ , calculate b
  5. y = ______ sin( _________ x). Given the general form y = a sin(bx) and the results above, write the equation for the RipStik swizzle wave.
  6. _________ A tuning fork has a frequency of 384 Hertz. Calculate the period for the tuning fork.
  7. ________ Calculate arcsin(0.707106782), report the result in degrees.
  8. ________ Calculate arccos( 3 2 ) , report the result in degrees.
  9. __________ For a right triangle with an adjacent side of length 65 and an opposite side of 72, find the length of the hypotenuse r.
    Right triangle 65 72 r Right triangle θ 65 72 r
  10. __________ For a right triangle with an adjacent side of length 65 and an opposite side of 72, find the angle θ in degrees.
  11. Produce a "north pointing" hexagon inscibed in a circle with a radius of 100 pixels using SVG on your computer. Call me over when you are done and show me your correctly done hexagon in a circle SVG. You must finish this sufficiently prior to the end of the period for me to properly check your result.
