you can use the quotient rule
OpenStudy (freckles):
or if you want write r as
\[r=(11-\theta)^\frac{-1}{2}\]
then just use chain rule
OpenStudy (ashley1nonly):
so i just use the trig functions
OpenStudy (ashley1nonly):
theta=2
OpenStudy (ashley1nonly):
how would i find a value

I don't know what you mean
OpenStudy (freckles):
you don't need trig functions to differentiate the r equation above
OpenStudy (freckles):
just chain rule
OpenStudy (ashley1nonly):
find the value of the derivative
is it asking for a number or just find the derivative
OpenStudy (freckles):
find the value of the derivative for what value of theta? theta=2?
you need to first find the derivative?

1/54 is final anser
1/2(11-x)^(3/2)
OpenStudy (freckles):
\[\frac{dr}{d \theta}=\frac{1}{2 (11-x)^\frac{3}{2}} \\ \frac{dr }{ d \theta} |_{x=2}=\frac{1}{2(11-2)^\frac{3}{2}} \]
OpenStudy (freckles):
so you said 11-2=9
and sqrt(9)=3
and 3^3=27
and 2(27)=54
so we have 1/54
