X^2 + y^2 = 26.6

X^2 + y^2 = root(2, 26.6)
X^2 + y^2 = 26.6

III.Conclusion
The shape of a Ferris Wheel is a circle. The shape allows it to carry more people and it also easier to rotate by
its central axis cause of its design, because if it was a square or a triangle or any other shape it would be hard
for people to get on and off. Yes, circle is used perfectly for Seattle Great Wheel.
