Ron is on a Ferris wheel of radius 30 ft that turns counterclockwise at a rate of one revolution every 12 seconds. The lowest po
int of the Ferris wheel (6 o'clock) is 15 feet above ground level at the point (0,15) on a rectangular coordinate system. Find parametric equations of Ron as a function of time t (in seconds) if the Ferris wheel starts (t=0) with Ron at the point (30,45).
1 full revolution is let \theta be the angle of Ron's position.
At t = 0.
one full revolution occurs in 12 sec, so his angle at t time is
r is radius of circle and it is given as
for r = 30 sec
however, that is centered at (0,0) and the positioned at time t = 0 is (30,0). it is need to shift so that the start position is (30,45). it can be done by adding to y
