(1 point) Let θ(in radians) be an acute angle in a right triangle and let xx and yy, respectively, be the lengths of the sides adjacent to and opposite θ. Suppose also that x and y vary with time.
At a certain instant x=8 units and is increasing at 1 unit/s, while y=5 and is decreasing at 1/3 units/s.
How fast is θ changing at that instant?
