About This Quiz
Amplitude Of Cosine Functions - Quiz

Amplitude tells you how “tall” a cosine wave is from the midline to its peak. In this quiz, you’ll explore how coefficients affect the amplitude of cosine functions. You’ll match equations with their correct wave heights and learn to quickly spot how the number in front of cosine changes the... see moregraph.
