Hello. I know this may be a dumb question, and I apologize for doing that.
But I am new to Mathematica, and I'm having a little trouble with this. I
want to plot the equation:

P=[sin(a-x)*t/(a-x)]^2

with fixed t (say, 1) and fixed a (say, Pi/2), with x varying from 0 to Pi.
I know there is a discontinuity at x=a. Is there a way to plot this? I mean,
P(x) versus x?

Thanks,
--
