प्रश्न

If each side of an equilateral triangle increases at the rate of `(sqrt(2)"cm")/sec`, find the rate of increase of its area when its side of length 3 cm.

योग

उत्तर

If x cm is the side of the equilateral triangle and A is its area, then

`"A" = sqrt(3)/(4)x^2`

Differentiating w.r.t. t, we get

`"dA"/"dt" = sqrt(3)/(4) xx 2xdx/dt = sqrt(3)/(2).xdx/dt`       ...(1)

Now, `dx/dt = (sqrt(2)"cm")/sec` aand x = 3 cm

∴ (1) gives, `"dA"/"dt" = sqrt(3)/(2) xx 3 xx  sqrt(2)`

= `(3sqrt(6))/(2) "cm"^2/sec`

Hence, rate of increase of the area of equilateral triangle

= `(3sqrt(6))/(2) "cm"^2/sec`.
