Trig Task 1.docx  VDT2  VDT2 – VDT Task 1: Trigonometric Modeling  A. The sketch below was created in Google Drawings. I downloaded it as a jpg file and inserted it into my word document.  A. 1.    Based on the sketch that I have made from the scenario given, I estimate to the nearest hour that the boat can be safely secured at the dock from 4 am to 11 am, and again from 5 pm to  0.958333333333333  B.        The equation below is used to determine the exact trigonometric function used to model the depth of the water in meters t hours after midnight.  y= A sin ( Bx −C )+ D  B. 1.    The process I used to determine the exact trigonometric function includes a series of steps.  I started with finding the value of    D   by using the vertical shift, or the vertical translation. The vertical shift, or vertical translation is the distance that the curve moves up or down. To find the value of    D  , I use the average distance of the vertical shift.  I have to find the average between the maximum and minimum height of the curve.  In this scenario the maximum depth of the water is 5.3 meters, and the minimum depth is 1.1 meters. To find the average depth, I add these two numbers together and then divide by two.  5.3 plus 1.1 equals 6.4, then I divide that number by 2 and I get 3.2.  So, the value of    D   for this scenario is 3.2  meters.  The next step would be to find the value of    A   , which stands for the Amplitude. The amplitude represents the distance, or absolute value, of the cycle from
