Student I.D.:
1. Due Date: Thursday, May 7, 2020
2. Format of the Paper
 Single-spaced
 Times New Roman font with 12 font size
3. What to Submit
 Topic: Model your blood pressure by using both sine and cosine functions
 Project Steps
◦ Step 1: Watch recommended youtube videos and describe what you learn from it – 150
words or more
▪ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPpvfAQ3JNU
▪ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QR7sHLD504
◦ Step 2: Research on blood pressure and a pulse rate. Please look at timeline week 2 and
answer all those questions. Please list all your references.
▪ What is blood pressure?
 Systolic pressure
 Diastolic pressure
▪ Is systolic pressure a maximum value?
 If so, how can you relate this to your cosine and sine function blood pressure
modeling?
▪ Is diastolic pressure is a minimum value?
 If so, how can you relate this to your cosine and sine function blood pressure
modeling?
▪ Pulse rate
 What is a pulse rate?
 What is the relationship between pulse rate and the period?
◦ Step 3: Create both sine and cosine functions which represent your ideal blood pressure
modeling and sketch of those graphs in one cycle.
◦ Step 4: Write all those steps by following the format of your project for a submission on the
Blackboard. Write also your blood pressure project experiences – 150 words or more
