k) A ladder 20 ft long leans against a vertical wall. If the top end slides downward at the
rate of 2 ft per second , find the rate at which the lower end moves on a horizontal floor
when it is 12 ft from the wall. Find also the rate at which the slope of the ladder changes.
l) Find the intervals in which the function f given by, f ( x ) = sin x + cos x , 0 ≤ x ≤ 2π
is strictly increasing or strictly decreasing.
