Two toy racecars race along a circular race track. Both cars start at the 3-o'clock position and travel in the CCW direction. Let t represent the number of seconds since the start of the race. Imagine angles with terminal rays that pass through each car as it moves. Car A is constantly 4.5 feet from the center of the race track and travels a constant speed. The angle with a terminal ray passing through Car A sweeps out 2.5 radians per second. Write an expression (in terms of t) that represents Car A's vertical distance above the center of the race track in feet.

It’s a sunny Saturday afternoon and you are walking around the lake by your house, enjoying the last few days of summer. The sidewalk surrounding the perimeter of the circular lake is crowded with walkers and runners. You then notice a runner approaching you wearing a T-shirt with writing on it. You read the first two lines, but are unable to read the third line before he passes. You wonder, ”Hmmm, if he continues around the lake, I bet I’ll see him again but I should anticipate the time when we’ll pass again.” You look at your watch and it is 5:07pm. You estimate your walking speed at 3 m/s and the runner’s speed to be about 14 m/s. You also estimate that the diameter of the lake is about 2 miles. At what time should you expect to read the last line of the t-shirt?
