उत्तर

Let ABC be the right angled triangle with
base b and hypotenuse h.

Given that b+h=k

Let A be the area of the right triangle.

`A=1/2 xxbxxsqrt(h^2-b^2)`

`A^2=1/4b^2(h^2-b^2)`

`A^2=b^2/4((k-b)^2-b^2) [because h=k-b]`

`A^2=b^2/4(k^2+b^2-2kb-b^2)`

`A^2=b^2/4(k^2-2kb)`

`A^2=(b^2k^2-2kb^3)/4`

``Differentiating the above function with respect to be, we have

`2A (dA)/(db)=(2bk^2-6kb^2)/4.......(1)`

`=>(dA)/(db)=(bk^2-3kb^2)/(2A)`

For the area to be maximum, we have

`(dA)/(db)=0`

`=>bk^2-3kb^2=0`

`bk=3b^2`

`b=k/3`

Again differentiating the function in equation (1), with respect to b, we have

`2((dA)/(db))2+2A(d^2A)/(db^2)=(2k^2-12kb)/4.....(2)`

Now substituting 0 and b in equation (2), we have

`2A(d^2A)/(db^2)=(2k^2-12k(k/3))/4`

`2A(d^2A)/(db^2)=(6k^2-12k^2)/12`

`2A(d^2A)/(db^2)=-k^2/2`

`2A(d^2A)/(db^2)=-k^2/(4A)<0`

Thus area is maximum at b=k/3.

Now, ` h=k-k/3=(2k)/3`

Let  be he angle between the base of triangle and hypotenuse of the right triangle.

Thus, `costheta=b/h=(k/3)/((2k)/3)=1/2`

`=>theta=cos^(-1)(1/2)=pi/3`
