How to find RC graphically?
We measure DT, and T then we get f1=2pDT/T,(see Fig 1)

Fig 1
We measure Vbc(1/2 peak to peak value of signal 1) and Vac(1/2 peak to peak value of signal 2)
then we have cos f2 = Vbc/Vac.    f2 = cos-1(Vbc/Vac)
f1 and f2 are the same physical quantity, but measured in two different ways.
Let f = 1/2(f1 + f2)
Draw a straight line from data 1/2pf vs tanf at different frequencies, its slope is RC(see Fig 2)
