With differentiation, one of the major concepts of calculus. Integration involves the calculation of an integral, which is useful to find many quantities such as areas, volumes, and displacement.
A ladder 27 feet long leans against a wall and the foot of the ladder is sliding away at a constant rate of 3 feet/sec. Meanwhile, a firefighter is climbing up the ladder at a rate of 2 feet/sec. When the firefighter has climbed up 6 feet of the ladder, the ladder makes an angle of л/3 with the ground. Answer the two related
rates questions below. (Hint: Use two carefully labeled similar right triangles.)
(a) If h is the height of the firefighter above the ground, at the instant the angle of the ladder with the ground is л/3, find dh/dt=
feet/sec.
(b) If w is the horizontal distance from the firefighter to the wall, at the instant the angle of the ladder with the ground is л/3, find dw/dt=
feet/sec.
Two cars start moving from the same point. One travels south at 60 mi/h and the other travels west at 25 mi/h. At what rate (in mi/h) is the distance between the cars increasing four hours later?
Step 1
Using the diagram of a right triangle given below, the relation between x, y, and z is
z²
= x²+

Step 2
We must find dz/dt. Differentiating both sides and simplifying gives us the following.
