### Graph the Trigonometric Function

**Function to Graph:**

\[ y = \frac{1}{2} \cos \left( x + \frac{\pi}{2} \right) \]

**Instructions:**
1. Plot all points corresponding to x-intercepts, minima, and maxima within one cycle.
2. Click on the graph-a-function button to complete the graph.

**Graph Description:**

The graph area is a coordinate system with \( x \)-axis and \( y \)-axis labeled. The grid is divided into smaller squares for precise plotting. The \( x \)-axis ranges from \(-6\) to \(6\) and the \( y \)-axis ranges from \(-3\) to \(3\).

**Toolbox:**
- Icons are visible for using tools like an eraser, pencil, and others necessary for graph construction.
- Options to erase points, reset the graph, and access help or further instructions are indicated by corresponding symbols.

**Submission:**
Once all points are plotted accurately, click on the **Submit** button to complete your task or select **I Don't Know** if uncertain.

**Note:**
- Ensure all critical points of the cosine function are plotted correctly, considering any shifts or transformations specified by the equation.
- Understand the transformations from the base cosine function due to the additional \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) phase shift and the \(\frac{1}{2}\) amplitude adjustment.
