Roque is flying a kite along the sand of bay. If the string is 45 meters, determine the rate at which the angle of elevation is changing if the horizontal distance from him to the point directly below the kite is 13 m, Assume that he is running at a rate of 1.2 m/s; the kite is not swaying as it fkies upward; and he started from rest when the kite is directly along his field of vision.
Ratios
A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.
Trigonometric Ratios
Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.
