For a certain city, the maximum number of daylight hours occurs on June 21 and is 16 hours and 7 minutes. The minimum of 8 hours and 19 minutes occurs on December 21. Using this information, create a trigonometric function which models this data and determine approximately how many hours of daylight there will be on April 5. Assume that the year has 365 days.
