Imagine the center of the singapore flyer is located at (0, 0) on a coordinate grid, and the radius lies on the x-axis. Write an equation of a circle for your Ferris wheel, and sketch an image of what your Ferris wheel would look like on the grid. Now graph a circle that is similar to the Ferris Wheel. Discuss the transformations needed to show that both circles on your graph are similar

The equation of the Ferris wheel is x² + y² = 25, and the transformation that shows that the circles are similar is the dilation transformation

How to determine the equation of the Ferris wheel?

From the question, we have the following parameters:

  • Center (a,b) = (0,0)
  • Radius, r = 5

The equation of a circle is represented as:

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

So, we have:

(x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = 5²

Evaluate

x² + y² = 25

Hence, the equation of the Ferris wheel is x² + y² = 25

See attachment for the image of the Ferris wheel

Transformation to a similar circle

Assume that the similar circle has the following parameters:

  • Center (a,b) = (0,0)
  • Radius, r = 10

The equation of the circle would be:

(x - 0)² + (y - 0)² = 10²

Evaluate

x² + y² = 100

Since both circles have the same center, the transformation that shows that they are similar is the dilation transformation
