उत्तर

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

Then x2 + 4xh = 192

∴ h = `(192 - x^2)/(4x)`                    ...(1)

Let V = `x^2"h"`

= `x^2((192 - x^2)/(4x))`   ...[By (1)]

∴ V = `(1)/(4)(192x - x^3)`

∴ `"dV"/("d"x) = (1)/(4) "d"/("d"x)(192x - x^3)`

= `(1)/(4)(192 xx 1 - 3x^2)`

= `(3)/(4)(64 - x^2)`

and

`("d"^2"V")/("d"x^2) - (3"d")/(4"d"x)(64 - x^2)`

= `(3)/(4)(0 - 2x)`

= `-(3)/(2)x`

For maximum V, `"dV"/("d"x)` = 0

∴ `(3)/(4)(64 - x^2)` = 0

∴ x2 = 64

∴ x = 8                           ...[∵ x > 0]

and

`(("d"^2V)/("d"x^2))_("at" x = 8)`

= `-(3)/(2) xx 8`

= – 12 < 0

∴  by the second derivative test, V is maximum at x = 8.

If x = 8,

h = `(192 - 64)/(4(8)`

= `(128)/(32)`

= 4

Hence, the volume of the box is largest, when the side of square base is 8 cm and its height is 4 cm.
