A passenger must climb 7 steps to a platform to enter the gondola. Each step is 7.5 inches. What would the equation of the ferris wheel circle be on a cartesian coordinate graph if the x-axis is the ground and the y-axis is the axis of symmetry of the ferris wheel.

Graph a triangle (xyz) and reflect it over the line y=x to create triangle x’y’z’. describe the transformation using words. draw a line segment from point x to the reflecting line, and then draw a line segment from point x’ to the reflecting line. what do you notice about the two line segments you drew? do you think you would see the same characteristics if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y’ with the reflecting line? how do you know?
