    Can someone check my work on word problem

    In 1893, George Ferris engineered the Ferris Wheel. It was 250 feet in diameter. If the wheel makes 1 revolution every 50 seconds, then h(t) = 125sin (pi/25t - pi/2) + 125 represents the height (h), in feet, of a seat on the wheel as a function of time (t), where t is measured in seconds...

    Finding the Angle: Solving Trig Problems on the Ferris Wheel

    I have this question in my trig/pre cal class and I have no idea how to approach it what so ever. In 1893, George Ferris engineered the Ferris Wheel. It was 250 feet in diameter. If the wheel makes 1 revolution every 50 seconds, then h(t) = 125sin (pi/25t - pi/2) + 125 represents the...
