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.

Complete the following activity to divide 84 into two parts such that the product of one part and square of the other is maximum.
Solution: Let one part be x. Then the other part is 84 - x
Letf (x) = x2 (84 - x) = 84x2 - x3
∴ f'(x) = `square`
and f''(x) = `square`
For extreme values, f'(x) = 0
∴ x = `square "or" square`
f(x) attains maximum at x = `square`
Hence, the two parts of 84 are 56 and 28.
