what is wrong with this picture? Two sides of a triangle have lengths 9 m and 15 m. The angle between them is increasing at a rate of 2°/min. How fast is the length of the third side increasing when the angle between the sides of fixed length is 60°? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

i guess nothing is really wrong, if you know to get rid of 2 and replace it by \(\frac{\pi}{90}\) but i am willing to bet that the person who wrote this did not have that in mind

OpenStudy (zarkon):

probably not

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i could be wrong ( but i really really doubt it, because of the 2 and also the 60)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

goes in to the "bad math" vault, i should have started it sooner what with all the questions i see here that are ill posed

OpenStudy (zarkon):

you could have had a nice list by now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (zarkon):
