Question
a revolving light is located at 5 km from a straight shoreline with a constant angular velocity. what velocity does the light revolve if the light moves along the shoreline at the rate of 15km/min when the beam of light makes a angle of 60 with the shoreline?

this is exactly analogous to your other problem with the revolving spotlight. See what you can do for it. Here, you are solving for dθ/dt instead of dx/dt.
