Solution:

we are given that
y=cos x

Here we are going to plot two curves one for cosx and the othere also of cosx but after making a phase shift of
\pi/2

When we do a phase shift by an angle of theta , in that case actaully we add angle negative theta .

For example when we shift the phase of sinx by
\pi/2 we get
sin(x-\pi/2).

Hence we are going to plot the curve of


y=cosx\\ \\ y=cos(x-\pi/2)=sinx\\

Hence the correct option is B.
