Project: Ferris Wheel

All of the boxes are the same size because it is the same polygon, translated by vector. The boxes are evenly spaced around the circle at a 45 degree interval due to the ability to create a point every 45 degrees using a tool in Geogebra. By turning the animation on for Point C, the point at the top, the wheel rotates with the boxes because the spacing pushes the next point forward to keep the 45 degree spacing and so on. The boxes are fixed to the point so they travel around the origin of the circle with the point they are attached to.
Also, the clouds will move across the screen, and the Ferris Wheel will rotate if you click 'Go', and will stop if you click 'Stop.'
