उत्तर

Let x cm be the side of square base and h cm be its height.

Then x2 + 4xh = 147

∴ h = `(147 - x^2)/(4x)`                    ...(1)

Let V = `x^2"h"`

= `x^2((147 - x^2)/(4x))`   ...[By (1)]

∴ V = `(1)/(4)(147x - x^3)`

∴ `"dV"/("d"x) = (1)/(4) (147x - x^3) = 0`

∴ 147 = 3x2

∴ `147/3 = x^2`

∴ x2 = 49

∴ x = 7

Put in eq (i)

∴ h = `(147 - x^2)/(4x)`   

∴ h = `(147 - 49)/(4(7))`   

∴ h = `98/(4 xx 7)`

∴ h = `14/4`

∴ h = `7/2`

∴ h = 3.5

Hence, the volume of the box is largest when the side of square base is 7 cm and its height is 3.5 cm.

The rectangle has area of 50 cm2. Complete the following activity to find its dimensions for least perimeter.

Solution: Let x cm and y cm be the length and breadth of a rectangle.

Then its area is xy = 50

∴ `y =50/x`

Perimeter of rectangle `=2(x+y)=2(x+50/x)`

Let f(x) `=2(x+50/x)`

Then f'(x) = `square` and f''(x) = `square`

Now,f'(x) = 0, if x = `square`

But x is not negative.

∴ `x = root(5)(2)   "and" f^('')(root(5)(2))=square>0`

∴ by the second derivative test f is minimum at x = `root(5)(2)`

When x = `root(5)(2),y=50/root(5)(2)=root(5)(2)`

∴ `x=root(5)(2)  "cm" , y = root(5)(2)  "cm"`

Hence, rectangle is a square of side `root(5)(2)  "cm"`
