Math Question

Part IV
Use the following data from the Washington, DC area from Bob Ryan's 1992 Almanac to answer the questions below. \( { }^{* *} \) Military time is a 24 hour clock that begins at midnight, represented by \( 00: 00.6: 15 \mathrm{pm} \) would be written as \( 18: 15 \).
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|}
\hline Date & Day & Sunrise & Sunset in Military time \\
\hline March 20 & 80 & \( 6: 12 \mathrm{am} \) & \( 18: 20 \) \\
\hline June 20 & 172 & \( 4: 42 \mathrm{am} \) & \( 19: 36 \) \\
\hline September 20 & 266 & \( 5: 55 \mathrm{am} \) & \( 18: 04 \) \\
\hline December 20 & 356 & \( 7: 23 \mathrm{am} \) & \( 16: 50 \) \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
1. Using the equation \( y=1.38 \sin \left(\frac{\pi}{183}(x-80)\right)+18.22 \) to represent the sunset function, explain in words what the following values represent.
a. \( 1.38 \)
b. \( 18.22 \mid \)
c. Use \( \frac{\pi}{183} \) to find the period. What does this mean in the context of the sunset times?
