where A is the amplitude of the sinusoid, ω is the angular frequency (in radians/second) of the signal,
and θ is the phase angle (expressed in radians or degrees) of the signal. A provides the peak value
of the sinusoid, ω governs the rate of oscillation of the signal, and θ affects the translation of the
sinusoid in time. A typical sinusoidal signal is shown in Figure 1
