If the rider succeeds in grabbing a brass ring instead of an iron ring, the rider has won a free ride on the merry go round. Write a sinusoidal function that models the height of one of the horse figures as a function of the rotation of the main carousel with theta=0 at the ring dispenser. The amplitude of those horse's
