In math, the amplitude of a function is the distance between the maximum and minimum points of the function.
How do I find the amplitude of a function?
The amplitude of a trigonometric function is half the distance from the highest point of the curve to the bottom point of the curve. To find the Ampllitude use the formula: Amplitude = (maximum - minimum)/2
What does a large amplitude of a function mean?
A larger amplitude means that the oscillations of the function are more pronounced, while a smaller amplitude means that the oscillations are less pronounced.
Can a function have no amplitude?
A function can have no amplitude if it is a constant function, meaning that it always has the same value regardless of the input value.
