Yes mate, real easy to do

Yes mate, real easy to do this one. Basically if they are in phase the peaks and the troughs will align with each other. (Also known as constructive interferance!!) Out of phase they will not align. (DESTRUCTIVE!!!) Top and Bottom are in phase... middle is out of phase. HOPE THIS HELPS.
