ur differentiation is incorrect
Suppose the distance between the planes is h. Then:
h^2 = x^2 + y^2
Try differentiating this with respect to t.
that'd do. I just don't understand why it doesn't match if I try to differentiate h = sqrt(x^2 + y^2)
If h = √(x^2 + y^2), then dh/dt is not √((dx/dt)^2 + (dy/dt)^2).
Thank you...
how long it'd take to finish calculus 1, 2 and 3? How many hours a day? I am a fast learner.
Sorry, I am not familiar with this classification. I had a bit of calculus in school, then for two years in university.
