9. A windmill has a radius of 8m and rotates once every 20 seconds. The centre of the wheel is 20
metres off the ground (i.e. the vertical distance from the ground to the centre of the wheel is 20
metres).
a. Using COSINE, find an equation that represents the height of the tip of one of the blades ("h")
as a function of time "t" in seconds. Given that the tip is initially at its highest point. Show all
work to support your equation.
