This document defines and provides examples of related rate problems. Related rate problems involve calculating the rates of change of two or more related variables with respect to time. The document outlines the steps to solve related rate problems: 1) identify changing quantities, 2) write an equation relating the quantities, 3) differentiate both sides with respect to time, 4) solve for the required quantity and substitute known values. Examples include calculating the rate of change of a dog's circular puddle area, a melting snowball's radius, the top of a slipping ladder, and the height of a conical sand pile.
