A Ferris wheel has a radius of 42.4 feet. The bottom of the Ferris wheel sits 0.8 feet above
the ground. You board the Ferris wheel at the 6 o'clock position and rotate counter-
clockwise.
a. Define a function, f that gives your height above the ground (in feet) in terms of the
angle of rotation (measured in radians) you have swept out from the 6 o'clock
position, a
f(a)-42.4sin(a)+43.2
Preview
b. Define a function, g, that gives your height above the ground (in feet) in terms of the
number of feet you have rotated counter-clockwise from the 6 o'clock position, s.
g(s)=43.2+42.2sin(s/42.4)
