Please help, I need to know how to do this!! A carnival ride is in the shape of a wheel with a radius of 25 feet. The wheel has 20 cars attached to the center of the wheel. What is the central angle, arc length, and area of a sector between any two cars?
well what did u imagine about the physical appearance of the situation ?
A ferris wheel
lol ..no how are the cars attached .?
I think they're 1.25 feet apart from eachother? I don't understand what you're asking.
because i am not being able to make the picture in my mind ..!
I didn't get a pic either
ohk ..! let us assume that each car occupies equal space ..so area of the circle ..625pi divided by 20 will give area by each car .!
so each car will require 18 deg. of the 360 deg. central angle .!|dw:1389978262130:dw|
