The transformation needed to show that both circles on the graph are similar is dilation
<h3>How to model the equation of the Ferris wheel</h3>
The equation of a circle that has its center to be (0,0) is:
x² + y² = r²
Where the radius of the circle (r) is r > 0
Assume that r = 5
Then, we have:
x² + y² = 5²
x² + y² = 25
The above represents Ferris wheel equation
A circle similar to the Ferris wheel can have the following equation
x² + y² = 3²
The radius in the above circle equation is 3
Since both circles pass through the center, either of the circles can be dilated to the other
