The base of a right triangle is increasing at a rate of 2 meters per hour and the height is decreasing at a rate of 3 meters per hour. When the base is 9 meters and the height is 22 meters, then how fast is the HYPOTENUSE changing

dL/dt  = - 2,019 m/h

Step-by-step explanation:

L²  =  x²  +  y²   (1)    Where  x, and  y are the legs of the right triangle and L the hypotenuse

If the base of the triangle, let´s call x is increasing at the rate of 2 m/h

then  dx/dt =  2 m/h. And the height is decreasing at the rate of 3 m/h or dy/dt = - 3 m/h

If we take differentials on both sides of the equation (1)

2*L*dL/dt = 2*x*dx/dt  + 2*y*dy/dt

L*dL/dt  = x*dx/dt + y*dy/dt         (2)

When  the base is 9  and the height is 22 according to equation (1) the hypotenuse is:

L = √ (9)² + (22)²       ⇒    L = √565       ⇒  L  = 23,77

Therefore we got all the information to get dL/dt .

L*dL/dt  = x*dx/dt + y*dy/dt

23,77 * dL/dt  = 9*2 + 22* ( - 3)

dL/dt  =  ( 18 - 66 ) / 23,77

dL/dt  = - 2,019 m/h
