If He began at 4:15 and ended at 5:50 then that would be 95 minutes
2x dx/dt +2y dy/dt = 0

<span>dy/dt = - 3 ft/sec </span>
Answer is 174 ft2.
Area of triangle: 24 ft2
First, find the horizontal side of the triangle (using pythagorus).
16-10=6
root10^2 - 6^2 = 8 ft
Then work out the area of the triangle.
(8 x 6)/2 = 24 ft2
Secondly, find the area of the rectangle.
10 x 15 = 150 ft2
Then add up the area of the triangle and rectangle.
150+24= 174 ft2
