उत्तर
Let x be the length of the side of the square base of the cubical open box and y be its height.
∴ Surface area of the open box
c2 = x2 + 4xy
⇒ y = `("c"^2 - x^2)/(4x)` ....(i)
Now volume of the box, V = x × x × y
⇒ V = x2y
⇒ V = `x^2(("c"^2 - x^2)/(4x))`
⇒ V = `1/4 ("c"^2x - x^3)`
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we get
`"dv"/"dx" = 1/4 ("c"^2 - 3x^2)` ....(ii)
For local maxima and local minima, `"dV"/"dx"` = 0
∴ `1/4 ("c"^2 - 3x^2)` = 0
⇒ c2 – 3x2 = 0
⇒ x2 = `"c"^2/3`
∴ x = `sqrt("c"^2/3) = "c"/sqrt(3)`
Now again differentiating equation (ii) w.r.t. x, we get
`("d"^2"V")/("dx"^2) = 1/4 (- 6x)`
= `(-3)/2 * "c"/sqrt(3) < 0` ...(maxima)
Volume of the cubical box (V) = x2y
= `x^2(("c"^2 - x^2)/4x)`
= `"c"/sqrt(3)[("c"^2 - "c"^2/3)/4]`
= `"c"/sqrt(3) xx (2"c"^2)/(3 xx 4)`
= `"c"^3/(6sqrt(3))`
Hence, the maximum volume of the open box is `"c"^3/(6sqrt(3))` cubic units.

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"`
