Giana Cardenas · Answer 1

The period of the function is 2pi, so every 2pi, the cycle will begin again. If the h-values differ by multiples of 2pi, the function will have the same graph.

Gerardo Hobbs · Answer 2

Whenever their h values differ by a multiple of the period of the sine function. Since sine has period 2pi, it would happen when the values differ by a multiple of 2pi.
