Question: A flare is shot upwards from a point on the ground that is 100 metres from an observer. As the flare rises, the observer views the flare at an angle of elevation \(\theta\).

Suppose we know the flare's height above the ground is changing at a rate of \(1.35 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). At what rate is the angle of elevation \(\theta\) changing when \(h=86\) metres.
