Ferris Wheel Trigonometry Problem [URGENT]

You are in an amusement park with your friends. They wish to ride the Ferris wheel but you opted not to ride with them. After loading your friends who are the first in line, the wheel rotates 45 ̊ clockwise and loads another group of riders onto the next cabin. Suppose the center of the Ferris wheel is at the origin and the loading cabin is along the negative y-axis. The Ferris wheel is currently loading its fourth group of riders. What is the reference angle formed by your friends’ cabin?


NOTE: The circle (ferris wheel) basically looks like a pizza which was cut into 8 equal slices
