First of all, let's convert all the measures to the same unit: 4 feet are 48 inches.
Now, as the wheel turns, there is a proportion between the angle and the distance travelled: for example, when the car moves forward a whole circumference, the angle will be 360°. Conversely, if the wheel turns 180°, then the car will move forward a distance which is half the circumference of the wheel, and so on.
Since the radius is 16 inches, the circumference will be
So, we have the following proportion:
that you can read as: "if an angle of 360 corresponds to a distance travelled of , then the unknown angle x corresponds to a distance travelled of 48 inches.
Solving for x, we have
Answer:
Pythagorean theorem, eh?
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to do this is use the radius-tangent angle theorem thing...
It states that, a radius that intersects a point of tangency(I think that's what it's called) is perpendicular to the tangent. Thus, CW is perpendicular to OW!
Thus, it forms a right triangle, where we can use Pythagorean Theorem!
If you don't know what it is, check the internet! It's pretty simple.
So, there you go! Hope this helps!
