उत्तर
Let ABC be the triangle such that the side BC = a = 4 cm. Also, the perimeter of the triangle is 10 cm.
i.e. a + b + c = 10
∴ 2s = 10
∴ s = 5
Also, 4 + b + c = 10
∴ b + c = 6
∴ b = 6 – c
Let Δ be the area of the trangle.
Then Δ = `sqrt(s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c)`
= `sqrt(5(5 - 4)(5 - 6 + c)(5 - c)`
= `sqrt(5(c - 1)(5 - c)`
∴ Δ2 = 5(c – 1)(5 – c)
= 5(5c – c2 – 5 + c)
∴ Δ2 = 5(– c2 + 6c – 5)
Differentiable both sides ww.r.t. c, we get
`2Δ(dΔ)/(dc) = 5d/"dc"(-c^2 ++ 6c - 5)`
= 5 (– 2c + 6 x 1 – 0)
= 5 (– 2c + 6)
∴ `(dΔ)/"dc" = (5(-c + 3))/Δ`
and
`(d^2Δ)/(dc^2) = 5d/"dc"((-c + 3)/Δ)`
= `5.(Δd/"dc"(– c + 3) – ( – c + 3)(dΔ)/"dc")/Δ^2`
= `5.(Δ(– 1 + 0) – ( – c + 3)(dΔ)/"dc")/Δ^2`
= `5/Δ^2(-Δ - (c + 3)(dΔ)/"dc")`
= `(-5)/Δ^2[Δ + (c + 3)(dΔ)/"dc"]`
For maximum Δ, `(dΔ)/"dc"` = 0
∴ `(5( - c + 3))/Δ` = 0
∴ – c + 3 = 0 ...[∵ Δ ≠ 0]
∴ c = 3
If c = 3,
Δ = `sqrt(5(3 - 1)(5 - 3)`
= `2sqrt(5)`
∴ `((d^2Δ)/(dc^2))_("at" c = 3)`
= `(-5)/(4 xx 5)[2sqrt(5) + (3 + 3)(0)]`
= `sqrt(5)/(2) < 0`
∴ by the second derivative test, Δ is maximum when c= 3.
When c = 3, b = 6 – c = 6 – 3 = 3
Hence, the area of the triangle is maximum when the other two sides are 3cm and 3cm.

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.
