You can put this solution on YOUR website! A race-car starts at the 3 o'clock position and drives counterclockwise on a circular track with a radius 2.9 miles
How many miles to the right of the center of the track is the car when the car has traveled 10.5 miles?
======================
Step 1, find the angle with the x-axis
angle = 10.5/2.9 radians.
---
Step 2, miles ROC = r - r*cos(angle)
