Question

The graph below includes one complete cycle of the graph of an equation containing a trigonometric function. Find an equation to match the graph. If you are using a graphing calculator, graph your equation to verify that it is correct.
y = 

 
 
The image displays a graph of a sinusoidal function plotted on a Cartesian coordinate system. 

- **Axes**: 
  - The horizontal axis is labeled as \( x \), with a marked point at \(\pi/4\).
  - The vertical axis is labeled as \( y \).

- **Graph**:
  - The graph is a red curve representing a sinusoidal wave.
  - The wave starts slightly below the \( x \)-axis, going upwards to intersect the axis around the origin. 
  - The curve reaches a peak between \( y = 0 \) and \( y = 5 \), then descends back to cross the \( x \)-axis.
  - It continues downward, reaching a trough below \( y = -10 \), then moves back upwards.
  - The section of the graph shown appears symmetric around the \( y \)-axis.

This depiction helps visualize the character of sinusoidal functions, highlighting periodicity and amplitude.
