The graph is inserted. The sine wave amplitude is 2 and the period is $4pi$ . One full wave is in-between $[-2pi, 0] and [0, 2pi]]$

The period is $(2pi)/(1/2) =4pi$ , for one full wave.

For visual effect, choose one period as ^ $x in [-2pi, 2pi]$ .

The ends of this part are $[-2pi, 0] and [0, 2pi]$

y ranges between $+-(amplitude)=+-2$ .
