45PRACTICE PROBLEM
A woman stands on a flat ground surface at the base of a tall observation tower. A hawk takes off from the top of the tower, descending at an angle of 45∘ below the horizontal.

Determine the rate at which the angle of elevation is changing with respect to the height of the hawk when it is located above the ground.
