A wire of length 120 cm is bent in the form of a rectangle. Find its dimensions if the area of the rectangle is maximum
Advertisements
उत्तर
Let the length and breadth of a rectangle be x cm and y cm
∴ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(x + y) = 120 cm
∴ x + y = 60 .......(i)
Let A be the area of the rectangle.
∴ A = xy
= x(60 − x) .......[From (i)]
= 60x − x2
Differentiating w. r. t. x, we get
`("dA")/("d"x)` = 60 − 2x
∴ `("d"^2"A")/("d"x^2)` = −2
For maximum area, `"dA"/("d"x)` = 0
∴ 60 − 2x = 0
∴ x = 30
For x = 30,
`(("d"^2"A")/("d"x^2))_(x = 30)` = − 2 < 0
When x = 30, area of the rectangle is maximum.
and y = 60 − 30 = 30 .......[From (i)]
∴ Area of the rectangle is maximum if length = breadth = 30 cm.

A metal wire of 36 cm long is bent to form a rectangle. By completing the following activity, find it’s dimensions when it’s area is maximum.
Solution: Let the dimensions of the rectangle be x cm and y cm.
∴ 2x + 2y = 36
Let f(x) be the area of rectangle in terms of x, then
f(x) = `square`
∴ f'(x) = `square`
∴ f''(x) = `square`
For extreme value, f'(x) = 0, we get
x = `square`
∴ f''`(square)` = – 2 < 0
∴ Area is maximum when x = `square`, y = `square`
∴ Dimensions of rectangle are `square`

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"`
