The two sides of a tringle are increasing at the rate of 1/2 ft/sec with their included angle decreasing at the rate of π/90 rad/sec. What is the rate of change of area when the sides and the included angle are respectively 5 ft,8 ft, and 60°?
It’s about derivatives of trigonometric functions and the problem is in the form of a time-rate problem.
