Use the applet on this website to help you understand graphs of trigonometric functions as related to the values of the function on a unit circle. http://www.analyzemath.com/unitcircle/unitcircle.html http://www.interactmath.com   Scroll down to Sullivan and pick the 5th edition Algebra and Trig, enhanced with graphing utilities.  Then practice the problems in the trig chapters.
Use the applet on this website to explore the changes in the graph of this function  f(x) = a*sin(bx+c)+d  by changing the values of the constants.  Scroll down and click the button under "Interactive .. Java Applet".
