Monica and Louie go to the fair and decide to take a ride on the Ferris wheel. The Ferris wheel operator tells them if they can keep track of how far they have traveled while in their seat, they will win a prize. The catch is that they have to be able to tell him how far they have traveled any time he asks for it. The only information he gives them is that the Ferris wheel’s radius is 20 feet. After agreeing to this challenge, Monica notes there are 12 total carts equally spaced around the Ferris wheel. Louie and Monica are also the first group to board at the bottom of the Ferris wheel. After the operator filled up seven total carts, including Louie and Monica’s, he asks them for distance they traveled. What is the length of the arc in feet traveled by Louie and Monica? Measured in radius length? Label these measurements on the diagram. Explicitly identify the arc length being measured.
