**Problem 6: Sketch the Graph of y = Cos(0.5x + 20π)**

**Instructions:**
- Sketch the graph of the function \( y = \cos(0.5x + 20\pi) \).
- Consider the interval from \( x = -2\pi \) to \( x = 2\pi \).

**Graph Explanation:**
The image contains a Cartesian plane featuring an x-axis labeled with increments of \( \pi \), ranging from \( -2\pi \) to \( 2\pi \). The y-axis is oriented upright, intersecting the x-axis at the origin (0,0). Both axes are marked, but the sketch of the cosine function is not displayed.

**Key Considerations:**
- **Amplitude:** The amplitude of the cosine function is 1.
- **Period:** The coefficient of x is 0.5, affecting the period of the function. The period \( T \) is calculated as \( T = \frac{2\pi}{0.5} = 4\pi \).
- **Phase Shift:** The phase shift is determined by the constant term inside the cosine function, \( 20\pi \), which results in no visible shift as it is a multiple of \( 2\pi \).
- **Sketching Steps:**
  1. Identify critical points where \( y = 1, 0, -1 \).
  2. Recognize that due to the period adjustment, one full cycle of the cosine curve spans from 0 to \( 4\pi \).
  3. Plot the corresponding y-values at significant x-values within the specified range.

By sketching this function, students can visualize how changes in coefficients and constants inside trigonometric functions modify their graphs.
