SteamBoat Problem Mark Twain sat on the deck of a river steamboat. As the paddle wheel turned, a point on the paddle blade moved so that its distance, d, from the water's surface was a sinusoidal function of time. When Twain's stopwatch read 3 seconds, the point was at its highest, 20 feet above the water's surface. The wheel's diameter was 24 feet, and it completed a revolution every 6.5 seconds. Draw the function and write the cosine function to model this situation. -26+ 24 22 -20 18 16 14 10 4- -2 10 12 14 16 18 -4 Clear All Draw: Write a cosine function that models the following problem. Use exact values. flx) a
