The tallest ferris wheel in the world, located in Dubai, has a circumference of 250 meters. Suppose a passenger starts their journey at the lowest point of the ferris wheel. If we describe the passenger's position as a sinusoidal function (where the horizontal axis represents time and the vertical axis represents height), the peak of the function will represent the highest point of the ferris wheel. Considering the radius of the ferris wheel as the maximum value of the sinusoidal function and the center of the ferris wheel as the horizontal axis line, after a quarter turn of the ferris wheel, what is the value of the cosine of the angle formed by the passenger's position and the horizontal line?
a.
The value of the cosine of the angle formed by the passenger's position and the horizontal line after a quarter turn of the ferris wheel is 0.
b.
The value of the cosine of the angle formed by the passenger's position and the horizontal line after a quarter turn of the ferris wheel is 1
c.
The value of the cosine of the angle formed by the passenger's position and the horizontal line after a quarter turn of the ferris wheel is -0.5
d.
The value of the cosine of the angle formed by the passenger's position and the horizontal line after a quarter turn of the ferris wheel is -1
e.
The value of the cosine of the angle formed by the passenger's position and the horizontal line after a quarter turn of the ferris wheel is 0.5

The image presented in the figure is a black and white copy of the square canvas titled The Fish, by Marcos Pinto, which was placed on a wall for exhibition and fixed at points A and B (figure 1). Due to a problem in fixing one of the points, the canvas detached and rotated close to the wall. After the rotation, it was positioned as illustrated in figure 2, forming a 45° angle with the horizon line. Figure 1 Figure 2 To put the canvas back in its original position, it should be rotated, close to the wall, at the smallest possible angle less than 360°. The way to put the canvas back in the original position, following what was established, is by rotating it at an angle of
