As you may remember, the Ferris wheel at the amusement park where Al and Betty like to ride has a radius of 15 feet, and its center is 20 feet above ground level. This is not the same Ferris wheel as the one at the circus. The park's Ferris wheel turns with a constant angular speed. It takes 24 seconds for a complete turn. The fence around the amusement park is 13 feet high. Once Al and Betty get above the fence, there is a wonderful view. 1. During one revolution, what percentage of the time are Al and Betty above the height of the fence?

Doc Brown (from Back To The Future) has jumped back in time again to 1955 to witness Marty McFly trying to time jump out of 1955 in his DeLorean. Doc knows that Marty has to get the car up to 88 miles per hour in order for the time travel to work. Doc is at the top of a 60 foot building. At one point, he notices the car makes a 10 degree angle to where he is located. Five seconds later, he noticed the angle is now 45 degrees. Is Marty driving fast enough to make the jump back to 1985? Show all work
