Sine wave with effective value

The solid line represents the sine function, with the ordinate labelled in degrees (360 degrees = 2 pi radians = one cycle). The effective value of the waveform is the root-mean-square value and can be thought of the constant voltage that would transmit power at the same rate as the alternating current. This is 0.707 of the peak value (square root of 1/2).
