    A camera is mounted 3000 feet from a rocket launching pad. The rocket is rising vertically at 880 feet/s when it reaches 4000 feet above the pad. To keep the camera aimed at the rocket, the camera's elevation angle must change at a certain rate as the rocket rises and the camera angle needs to adjust.

    Problem from Class:

    Solve this related rate problem without using a calculator.

    A camera is mounted 3000 feet from the base of a rocket launching pad. If the rocket is rising vertically at 880 feet/s
    when it is 4000 feet above the launching pad, how fast must the camera elevation angle change at that instant to
    keep the camera aimed at the rocket?
