Explanation Given: Alina props a 12-foot ladder against the side of her house. Concept Used: Pythagorean Theorem: In a right angle triangle, the sum of the squares of legs of triangle is equal to the square of the hypotenuse of the right triangle. Calculation: Letx be the distance of the base of the ladder from the house wall and y be the distance of the top of the ladder from the ground as shown below: Since the base of the ladder is sliding away at a rate of half of a foot per second, so d x d t = 1 2 foot per second Observe that the ladder is making a right triangle with the wall of house and the ground. So, using the Pythagorean Theorem in the right triangle, it gives x 2 + y 2 = ( 12 ) 2 x 2 + y 2 = 144 ...... ( i ) Now, to find the rate at which the top of ladder moving down the side of house, differentiate above equation ( i ) implicitly with respect to time t and simplify further as shown below: d d t ( x 2 + y 2 ) = d d t ( 144 ) d d t ( x 2 ) + d d t ( y 2 ) = 0 2 x d x d t + 2 y d y d t = 0 2 y d y d t = − 2 x d x d t d y d t = − 2 x 2 y d x d t d y d t = − x y ⋅ d x d t

Minimization

In mathematics, traditional optimization problems are typically expressed in terms of minimization. When we talk about minimizing or maximizing a function, we refer to the maximum and minimum possible values of that function. This can be expressed in ter…

Maxima and Minima

The extreme points of a function are the maximum and the minimum points of the function. A maximum is attained when the function takes the maximum value and a minimum is attained when the function takes the minimum value.

Derivatives

A derivative means a change. Geometrically it can be represented as a line with some steepness. Imagine climbing a mountain which is very steep and 500 meters high. Is it easier to climb? Definitely not! Suppose walking on the road for 500 meters. Which …

Concavity

In calculus, concavity is a descriptor of mathematics that tells about the shape of the graph. It is the parameter that helps to estimate the maximum and minimum value of any of the functions and the concave nature using the graphical method. We use the …
