Guitar

This is my guitar in my room. First I had to rotate the picture so that it was nearly parallel with the x-axis, this was to make it easier to graph. I saw trigonometry when I saw this picture. So I decided to plot a sine curve with a few adjustments. The equation I used was g(x)=((-.725/2)x+1)sin(.8x-.2)+.15). This was a difficult task, but I feel it fits this guitar the best that it can. The (-.725/2)x+1) part of this equation is of the formula y=mx+b which is the line that best fits this model. -.725/2 being the slope and 1 being the y-intercept. Then there is the sine curve, the .8x is the width of one period of the sine curve and -.2 is the right shift of the graph while the .15 in the vertical shift upwards.
