The amplitude of a sine curve given as y = a sin x is the absolute value of the coefficient a. In the equation y = asinx, a is the amplitude. So, in this case, the amplitude of the sine curve is the value of a.
We do not have a specific value for a given in the equation y = asinx, so the value of a can be any real number.
The equation of the graph is the form y=asinx. What is the amplitude of the sine curve? What is the value of a?
