As below.

Standard form of sine function is #y = A sin(Bx - C) + D#

#f(x) = sin(x - pi/6)#

#A = 1, B = 1, C = pi/6, D = 0#

#Amplitude = |A| = 1#

Period # = (2pi) / |B| = 2pi#

Phase Shift # = (-C) / B = -(pi/6) / 1 = -pi/6#, #color(red)(pi/6# to the LEFT

Vertical Shift # = D = 0#

graph{sin (x - pi/6) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
