Answer

Both functions have the same amplitudes and periods but the graph of function $g$ is a horizontal shift of $\pi$ units to the right of $f$.

Work Step by Step

Using the equation of sine $y=a\sin b(x-c)$: For $f(x)=\sin x=1\sin 1(x-0)$, $a=1$ $period=\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{2\pi}{1}=2\pi$ $shift=none$ For $f(x)=\sin (x-\pi)=1\sin 1(x-\pi)$, $a=1$ $period=\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{2\pi}{1}=2\pi$ $shift=\pi~to~the~right$ Thus, both functions have the same amplitudes and periods but the graph of function $g$ is a horizontal shift of $\pi$ units to the right of $f$.
