Set

Recall the following facts from the lesson done in class:

  • The Ferris wheel has a radius of .

  • The center of the Ferris wheel is above the ground.

Due to a safety concern, the management of the amusement park decides to slow the rotation of the Ferris wheel from for a full rotation to for a full rotation.

A circle within a circle representing a ferris wheel. The ferris wheel is divided into 10 equal parts with corresponding points labeled with the letters A through J. A right triangle is drawn between the center point, point a, and point b. The inner angle is 36 degrees, the hypotenuse is 25 feet, and the height is 25 times sine of 36 degrees.

b.

Plot the position you calculated on the diagram. Connect the center of the circle to the point you plotted. Then draw a vertical line from the plotted point on the Ferris wheel to the line segment in the diagram. Each time you should get a right triangle similar to the one in the figure.

Describe a relationship between the angle the hypotenuse makes with the -axis in each triangle and the angle of rotation. Use the diagram to help you think about the question. (The dotted arc shows the angle of rotation.)

A radian circle graphed on a coordinate plane where the left side of the x axis is labeled pi and right side is labeled 0. There are 4 right triangles graphed in each quarter of the radian circle.
