By getting your equation in the form Asin(Bx+C) and solving 2π|B|

Explanation:

First of all, you want to get your equation in the form of (Bx+C). it's not necessary in this case, but just for the sake of learning and avoiding mistakes, I'm including it anyway. You'll want to multiply (12) and (x+π4) to get the equation in the form Asin(Bx+C) as 4sin(12x+π8). Now, we are certain that B equals 12. Next, we'll plug in to to 2π|B| 2π12 = 4π
The period equals 4π
