Answer:
Hello,
I have reply too quick in comments (sorry)
Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with the rate of change of the base, db/dt equal to 1 ft/ sec and the rate of change of the height of the triangle, dh/dt equal to 2 ft/sec. b is 10 ft and h is 70 ft. Area of triangle is equal to A= 0.5 bh The rate of change of the area is equal to dA/dt = 0.5 b dh/dt + 0.5 h db/dt. Substituting, dA= 0.5*10*2 + 0.5*70 * 1 equal to 45 ft2 / sec.
Answer:
25.12 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The circumference of a circle is given by
(1)
where:

r is the radius of the circle
In this problem, the parachute has a diameter of 8 meters:
d = 8 m
The radius of a circle is equal to half of its diameter, so the radius of the parachute is:

And therefore, by applying eq.(1) we can find the circumference of the circle:
