The correct answer is:
none
Given Options are not matching
\( \frac{d x}{d t}=4 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{sec}, x=14 \mathrm{~cm} \)
\( A=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} x^{2} \)
\( \frac{d A}{d t}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \cdot 2 x \frac{d x}{d t} \)
\( =\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cdot 14 \times 4 \)
\( =\sqrt{3} \cdot 7 \times 4 \)
\( =28 \sqrt{3} \)
\( \frac{d x}{d t}=4 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{sec}, x=14 \mathrm{~cm} \)
\( A=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} x^{2} \)
\( \frac{d A}{d t}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \cdot 2 x \frac{d x}{d t} \)
\( =\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \cdot 14 \times 4 \)
\( =\sqrt{3} \cdot 7 \times 4 \)
\( =28 \sqrt{3} \)
