Earlier in the year, we used the basic definition of calculus as ;the mathematics of change.? We defined words that meant change: increasing, decreasing, growing, shrinking, etc. Change occurs over time. So, when we talk about how a quantity changes, we are talking about the derivative of that quantity with respect to time. Example 1) Write the following statements mathematically. a) John is growing at the rate of 3 inches/year. b) My mutual fund is shrinking by 4 cents/day. dh dm = !. /da 04 = 3 in/yr dt dt c) The radius of a circle is increasing by 4 ft/hr. d) The volume of a cone is decreasing by 2 in3/sec. dr dV = !2 in 3 /sec = 4 ft/hr dt dt Example 2) A rectangle is 10 inches by 6 inches whose sides are changing.

To solve related rates problems, you need a strategy that always works. Related rates problems always can be recognized by the words ;increasing, decreasing, growing, shrinking, changing.? Follow these guidelines in solving a related rates problem. 1. Make a sketch. Label all sides in terms of variables even if you are given the actual values of the sides. 2. You will make a table of variables. The table will contain two types of variables - variables that are constants and variables that are changing. Variables that never change go into the constant column. Variables that are a given value only at a certain point in time go into the changing column. Rates (recognized by ;increasing?, ;decreasing?, etc.) are derivatives with respect to time and can go in either column. 3. Find an equation which ties your variables together. If it an area problem, you need an area equation. If it is a right triangle, the Pythagorean formula may work or gerenal trig formulas may apply. If it is a general triangle, the law of cosines may work. 4. You may now plug in any variable in the constant column. Never plug in any variable in the changing column. 5. Differentiate your equation with respect to time. You are doing implicit differentiation with respect to t. 6. Plug in all variables. Hopefully, you will know all variables except one. If not, you will need an equation which will solve for unknown variables. Many times, it is the same equation as the one you used above. Do this work on the side as to not destroy the momentum of your work so far. 7. Label your answers in terms of the correct units (very important) and be sure you answered the question asked. Example 5) An oil tank spills oil that spreads in a circular pattern whose radius increases at the rate of 50 feet/min. How fast are both the circumference and area of the spill increasing when the radius of the spill is a) 20 feet and b) 50 feet?
