Here is my most recent code

I've managed to get an angle now but it is the wrong answer. The (theta[n])(180/pi) does not change if I out a multiplication sign in between. Also I switch the vb and vp around because vp-vb will be -150 for the first term n=1 which is why the output was 1 before. Also I had some sign errors in...

After some hours reading through mathematica I'm almost done with the code. I would appreciate it if someone could assist me from here... I know the print line will give me a correct angle if i substitute in 314 for n, but I'm not sure why my Catch line is giving its output as 1.

Consider a large Ferris wheel 30 meters in radius and its center stands 80 meters above lake level. At t = 0, a stunt person stands on the top of the Ferris wheel (theta = 0 degrees) which is rotating at a constant angular velocity w = 0.2 rad/s. At t = 0, a rescue boat is 150 m from the...
