The period is the length of x over which the equation repeats itself. In this case, y=sin x delivers y=0 at x=0 at a gradient of 1. y next equals 0 when x equals pi, but at this point the gradient is minus 1. y next equals 0 when x equals 2pi, and at this point the gradient is 1 again. Therefore the period of y=sinx is 2pi.
