Complete the table
Distance(ft)
Height(ft)

a = 6, b = 7, c = 8, d = 7 and e = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's remember that the complete revolution of the wheel is 360 degrees, and the distance traveled by a complete revolution is the length of the circumference: 2*pi*radius.

The inicial height of the point is 6 ft, and the radius of the wheel is 1 ft.

When the distance traveled is 0, the wheel turned 0 degrees, and the point will be in its inicial position (the lower position of the wheel), which is 6 feet high.

So the height will be a = 6 + 0 = 6 ft

When the distance traveled is pi/2, the wheel turned 90 degrees, and the point will be half the complete height of the wheel, which is 2 feet.

So the height will be b = 6 + 1 = 7 ft

When the distance traveled is pi, the wheel turned 180 degrees, and the point will be at the top of the wheel, which is 2 feet higher than the lower point of the wheel.

So the height will be c = 6 + 2= 8 ft

When the distance traveled is 3pi/2, the wheel turned 270 degrees, and the point will be half the complete height of the wheel, which is 2 feet.

So the height will be d = 6 + 1 = 7 ft

When the distance traveled is 2pi, the wheel turned 360 degrees, and the point will be in its inicial position (the lower position of the wheel), which is 6 feet high.

So the height will be e = 6 + 0 = 6 ft

So the answers are:

a = 6, b = 7, c = 8, d = 7 and e = 6
