    Year 11 Term 2 Maths Assignment

    By Alesha Tahir
    Part A: Designing the Ferris Wheel property in Fairfield

    Question 1.
    Screenshot of vacant land being used

    Use of google maps and located in Fairfield NSW


    Question 2.
    Name of site location: Brenan Park
    Address: Brenan St, Smithfield NSW 2164
    GPS coordinates of land: -33.857405, 150.930808

    Question 3.
    Irregular quadrilateral shape outline
    Used google maps for measurements
    2
    Total area: 1,129.84𝑚

    Question 4.
    Length of each perimeter:
    CD = 34m
    DE = 22m
    EF = 38m
    FC = 53m
    Total Perimeter: 147m

    Length of diagonal:
    CE = 40m

    Area of quadrilateral:
    2
    1,129.84𝑚

    Question 5.

    - Scaled drawing of the property with scale measurement included


    - Six interior angles measured to the nearest degree
    - All features clearly written on large diagram

    Question 6. d) The scaled area differs from the Google maps region by 10.29. The similarities
    include the diagonal length, which produced an exact result, and the angles, with five of them
    falling within 3 degrees of the tech results. The only possible explanation is that the
    measurements in the Google Maps diagram are not precise enough. This explanation is
    supported by evidence. On Google Maps, the length of all sides was to two significant figures,
    and the scaled length had more, making it more precise. In conclusion, the explanation of why
    the area results differed was a lack of precise lengths from Google Maps.
    Part B: Designing a ferris wheel and waiting area
    Question 1.
    2
    Total property size = 1, 129. 84𝑚
    2
    Circular face of wheel size: 60% × 1, 129. 84 = 677. 90𝑚

    Maximum Height: Research:


    If 12 carts = 20m Height
    Then, 1 cart = 1.6m Height
    ∴ 15 carts x 1.6m = 25m
    This is the minimum height needed but diameter of the
    wheel must be taken into account therefore the max
    height will be 45m.

    Suitable Size of the Cart:


    If 1 cart = maximum height of 1.6m, the cart cannot
    surpass 1.6m or it will crash into the ground. People
    stand to get in, so it must be larger than 1.8m to facilitate
    them ∴ the carts will be 2m tall. The support structure
    allows the cart to be 2m without touching the ground.

    Hanging Hook: half the height of the cart therefore, 1m.

    Support Structure: It will be 25m tall for an even weight distribution as it is greater than the half
    of 45m.

    Diagram:
    Question 2.

    2D Scaled Diagram

    D2

    Diameter working out (rounded to 38)


    I assumed edge length was the circumference of the ferris wheel and wheel
    size was area. If edge length is arc length then it is 7.98m (from part C
    question 1). If wheel size is diameter then it is 9.5m.
    Question 3.

    Question 3. (99 words)

    a) Periodic function is a function that repeats itself at regular intervals. The period of a
    function is an important characteristic of periodic functions, which helps to define a
    function. A periodic function y = f(x), having a period P, can be represented as f(X + P) =
    f(X). Some of the periodic function graphs include: sine wave, cosine wave, square
    wave, triangular wave, sawtooth wave The graph of each periodic function has
    translational symmetry. A ferris wheel's movement can be characterised as a periodic
    function since the carts travel at regular intervals and always return to the same value.
