Homework Statement
One side of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 3cm/s and a second side is decreasing at a rate of 2cm/s. If the area of the triangle remain constant, at what rate does the angle between the sides change when the first side is 20cm long and the second side is 30cm, and the angle is pi/6?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
My only question is, what is the formula for the angle between the two side? I know that it will be a function of the length of the two side, but I don't know how to find the explicit expression.
Thanks,
M
