Question 1041952: The figure shows that a bicyclist tips the cycle when making a turn. The angle​ B, formed by the vertical direction and the​ bicycle, is called the banking angle. The banking angle varies inversely as the​ cycle's turning radius. When the turning radius is
6
​feet, the banking angle is
39degrees°.
What is the banking angle when the turning radius is
6.5
​feet?
