Question

Imagine the center of the Singapore Flyer ferris wheel 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.

Answer 1

The equation of the circle is x² + y² = 25 and the transformation equation of the circle is x² + y² = 100.

What is the equation of the circle?

The following parameters are derived from the question:

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

Center (a, b) = (0, 0)

Radius (r) = 5

Then the equation of the circle will be

x² + y² = 5²

x² + y² = 25

Then the transformation of the circle will be

Center (a, b) = (0, 0)

Radius (r) = 10

Then the equation of the circle will be

x² + y² = 10²

x² + y² = 100
