Abstract
New attractions—including Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site, Atlanta History Center, World of Coca-Cola, and SkyView Ferris wheel—have made Atlanta, Georgia, a destination city. SkyView is one of the top five attractions for Atlanta tourists (see photographs 1 and 2). This Ferris wheel sits 200 feet tall and contains 42 climate-controlled gondolas, each of which can hold a maximum of six people. We can analyze and identify many mathematical features of this attraction that will lead us to a discussion of circumference, angles of polygons, the parametric form of conic sections, periodic functions, and related rates.
