How to Set Up & Solve Related Rates Problems | AP Calculus AB & BC | Math with Professor V
Related rates is one of the most intimidating topics in AP Calculus, not because of the calculus or algebra, but because of the setup. In this video, I work through four related rates examples, starting with simpler problems and building up to AP exam–level free response questions, with a focus on how to set up related rates problems correctly every time. This video is ideal for students in AP Calculus AB and AP Calculus BC, as well as anyone taking a first calculus course who wants a clearer, more organized approach to related rates. We’ll focus on identifying variables, writing the correct relationship equations, differentiating with respect to time, and knowing exactly when to substitute values — the steps AP graders look for. 📌 Related videos to help you review prerequisites: Implicit Differentiation: • Implicit Differentiation Demystified | Cal...
