1. **Problem Statement:**
Sketch one full period of the function $y = 2 \sin(x) + 3$.
2. **Formula and Important Rules:**
The general sine function is $y = A \sin(Bx - C) + D$ where:
- $A$ is the amplitude (height of the wave peaks from the center line).
- $B$ affects the period (length of one full cycle), period $= \frac{2\pi}{|B|}$.
- $C$ is the horizontal phase shift.
- $D$ is the vertical shift.
3. **Identify parameters for $y = 2 \sin(x) + 3$:**
- Amplitude $A = 2$.
- Frequency factor $B = 1$, so period $= \frac{2\pi}{1} = 2\pi$.
- Phase shift $C = 0$.
- Vertical shift $D = 3$.
4. **Sketching one full period:**
- The sine wave oscillates between $3 - 2 = 1$ and $3 + 2 = 5$ vertically.
- One full period spans from $x = 0$ to $x = 2\pi$.
- Key points:
- At $x=0$, $y = 2 \sin(0) + 3 = 3$ (midline).
- At $x=\frac{\pi}{2}$, $y = 2 \sin(\frac{\pi}{2}) + 3 = 2(1) + 3 = 5$ (maximum).
- At $x=\pi$, $y = 2 \sin(\pi) + 3 = 3$ (midline).
- At $x=\frac{3\pi}{2}$, $y = 2 \sin(\frac{3\pi}{2}) + 3 = 2(-1) + 3 = 1$ (minimum).
- At $x=2\pi$, $y = 2 \sin(2\pi) + 3 = 3$ (midline).
5. **Explanation:**
The sine wave is shifted up by 3 units, so the midline is at $y=3$ instead of $y=0$. The amplitude of 2 means the wave reaches 2 units above and below this midline.
6. **Final answer:**
The graph of $y = 2 \sin(x) + 3$ is a sine wave with amplitude 2, period $2\pi$, and vertical shift 3, oscillating between 1 and 5 over one full period from $0$ to $2\pi$.
