2. Adam and Beth are visiting an amusement park and have decided to ride the carousel. Adam picked a horse on the outside edge and Beth chose a dragon on the inside, closer to the center. Part 1: Do Adam and Beth travel the same distance during the ride? Choose a distance that each seat (horse and dragon) sits from the center and use the radius to determine how far each would travel during one rotation. Part 2: Choose an angle of rotation. Using complete sentences, compare the distance Adam and Beth will travel during this angle measurement. Part 3: Using complete sentences, describe which position you would prefer and why.
