As with all of the other related rates problems I've worked through, we are going to be following the same four step process. 1:12 | 1. Draw a sketch 5:04 | 2. Come up with your equation 12:01 | 3. Implicit differentiation 18:51 | 4. Solve for the desired rate of change
the foot of the ladder leaning against the wall is 6ft away from the wall and its top is 8ft above the ground. what is the length of the ladder? A.4ft B.12ft C.16ft D.100ft E.5ft What is the correct answer?
It's not that; about 90% of the time when anybody solves the ladder problem publicly, the ladder is going to form a 3, 4, 5 right triangle with the wall against which it rests. There is a limited number of ways the data for such a scenario can be presented. Insofar as this is the case when you see somebody work this problem it's going to seem like you've seen it before because in all likelihood you have seen it before.

@@craigeeyt2826 it’s easiest to use Pythagorean Theorem to figure that out.
I swear this guy gets his problem sets from my exact textbook and I love it.
I probably do! I try to do problems from popular required textbooks to help you out.

This is the best explanation I have ever seen on CZcams and I have learned all of Calc, chem, and precalc on CZcams
This was genius and criminally underrated, thanks champ🙌
Thank you, happy to help! I appreciate the comment!
Thanks mate you're the best
Thank you, and you’re welcome!
Very helpful, the most helpful one i have found thank you!
You’re welcome! I’m glad it helped!
Just had this question in a final , turns out I did it right!
Nice, good work! I hope the rest of the final went well!
In this case we're using Y to find out how. 😁
Explain it on a level that actually resonates
