This document provides instructions for creating a graphing window with three sliders in TI-Nspire and using the sliders to manipulate the graph of a sine function. The sliders control the amplitude, horizontal shift, and phase shift of the sine function. Users can explore how changing the slider values affects the graph of the function.
