Outside temperature over a day can be modelled using a sine

Outside temperature over a day can be modelled using a sine or cosine function. Suppose you know the high temperature for the day is 57 degrees and the low temperature of 43 degrees occurs at 2 AM. Assuming t is the number of hours since midnight, find an equation for the temperature, D, in terms of t.
