Guys Can anyone help me in this? I need a function (cos or sin) maximum at 7Pi/4 and at the same time changes sign under phi->phi+Pi with 0< phi< 2Pi...Thank you

Yes of course I do and u can find a function that is maximum at 7pi/4 but the problem is how to also make it change sign under phi->phi+Pi...
 
Thanks HallsofIvy but the maximum of the function should be at [tex]\phi=\frac{7\pi}{4}[/tex]. I guess the function should be [tex]\sin (\phi-\frac{\pi}{4})[/tex]
