P =( 2pi)/B-is the period of the function. From our equation B is 2pi

P=(2pi)/(2pi) = 1

Explanation:

General Sinusoidal Equation is y = C+Acos B (x-D) where
C is the shift in y which is also the sinusoidal axis.

A is the amplitude which is the distance from the sinusoidal axis up to the highest point or down to the lowest point.

B is the number of cycles of a complete sinusoidal graph in 2pi units.

P =( 2pi)/B-is the period of the function. From our equation B is 2pi

P=(2pi)/(2pi) = 1
