The period of a wave is the time it takes to complete a full cycle. “T” is the letter use to stand for period. The equation for period is:

T = 1 / f (one over frequency)

This equation is the same as:

T = 1 / t (one over time) the inverse of time



In this flash animation you can always see one period of the wave in the red area.
