Here you go, buddy www.desmos.com/calculator/48hkimmsbt
@@branthebrave Nice, can you explain how that works?
Or even write as a vector function, multiply by rotation matrix_2, and put back in explicit form
If you add a line wave and a linear it is similar in appearance on the graph to rotating the sine wave along the linear equation.
@@christophejefferies522 x and y were replaced in y=sin(x) with those phrases, and those were found by rotating a graph by a degree t and using trig to solve for the new positions. It works with any graph, and it doesn't even need to be a function: www.desmos.com/calculator/ndurdwgyfb
