The peak factor for a sine wave is

  • 1.1
  • 0.707.
  • 1.414.

Explanation from PART66Online

The peak (crest) factor is the ratio of peak value to RMS value. For a sine wave that is sqrt 2/1 = 1.414. The figure 0.707 is its reciprocal (RMS/peak), and 1.1 is closer to the form factor, so neither is the peak factor.
