We need to find the rate of the diameter, which we can denote as d(d)/dt.

\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{dA}{dx} \cdot \frac{dr}{dt}
\frac{dA}{dt} = -1, since it is decreasing.

-1 = \frac{dA}{dr} \cdot \frac{dr}{dt}

A = 4\pi \cdot r^{2}
\frac{dA}{dr} = 8\pi \cdot r

At r = 5:
\frac{dA}{dr} = 40 \pi

\frac{dr}{dt} = -\frac{1}{40 \pi}

Since the diameter is twice the radius and this is simply the rate at which the radius is decreasing, then the diameter will be decreasing twice as fast:

\frac{d(d)}{dt} = -\frac{1}{20\pi}

Thus, the diameter is decreasing at a rate of 1/(20pi) cm/min.

4. (10 points) From the given triangle:
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

sinθ =  y/r        sinθ = \frac{-6}{10} = \frac{-3}{5}

cosθ =  x/r       cosθ = \frac{8}{10} = \frac{4}{5}

tanθ =  y/x       tanθ =  \frac{-6}{8} =\frac{-3}{4}

cscθ =  r/y       cscθ = \frac{-5}{3}

secθ =  r/x       secθ =  \frac{5}{4}

cotθ = x/y       cotθ = \frac{4}{3}

explanation:

r = \sqrt{(8)^{2}+(-6)^{2}  }

r = 10

x = 8

y = -6

r = \sqrt{(4)^{2}+(3)^{2}  }

r = 5

x = 4

y = 3
