I'm trying to get the correct graph for this function off the computer. Can you please guide me to where I could get it and print it??
 
Physics news on Phys.org
sin2x=(1-cos2x)/2.

Does this help?
 
You seem to want a picture of the graph, here is one.

It would really help if you could give me these properties for this function.

Highlight all the properties: domain, range, maximum or minimum, lines of symmetry, restrictions, x-intercepts(zeros), y-intercepts.
 
What properties are you unable to find yourself?
 
I am unable to find any of them. A little guide on how to get them would be good.
 
You should be able to see the lines of symmetry while looking at the picture. What is the definition of a function's domain/range?
