Math 3 Final Project (Part 2)
Storyboard Text
- Today we are going to discuss theorems about relationships with angles and circles, including central, inscribed and circumscribed angles.
- Do you know how we can find the measurement of the angles inside a Ferris Wheel? I know we discussed this in school but I don't understand.
- First you have to figure out if you are looking at a central, inscribed or circumscribed angle.
- So I am going to be looking at central angle measurements. Okay, so first I need to figure out the distance from the center (radius) of Ferris Wheel to the outside edge of the Ferris Wheel.
- You can also use the same information to determine the distance between the two seats.
- The diameter of the Ferris wheel is 250 feet. Okay so from the center of the Ferris Wheel to the Car is 125 feet and there are 10 cars total. The distance between each car is 25 feet
- Okay so now we have our information lets go back to the classroom and work the problem out.
- The formula would look like: Central Angle = arc length radiusCentral Angle: 25 ft (180) 125 ft The interior angle between each car is 11.46 degrees
- I know understand the ways of circle and angles!
