Solve the following:
A wire of length l is cut into two parts. One part is bent into a circle and the other into a square. Show that the sum of the areas of the circle and the square is the least, if the radius of the circle is half of the side of the square.

उत्तर
Let r be the radius of the circle and x be the length of the side of the square.
Then,
Total length of the wire = circumference of the circle + perimeter of the square = l
∴ 2πr + 4x = l
∴ r = `(l - 4x)/(2pi)`
A = area of the circle + area of the square
= πr2 + x2
= `pi((l - 4x)/(2pi))^2 + x^2`
= `x^2+ (1)/(4pi) (l - 4x)^2`
= f(x) ...(Say)
Then f'(x) = `2x + (1)/(4pi) xx 2(l - 4x)(- 4)`
= `2x - (2)/pi(l - 4x)`
and
f"(x) = `2 - (2)/pi( - 4)`
= `2 + (8)/pi`
Now, f'(x) = 0 when `2x - (2)/pi (l - 4x)` = 0
i.e. when 2πx – 2l + 8x = 0
i.e when 2(π + 4)x = 2l
i.e. when x = `l/(pi + 4)`
and
f"`(l/(pi + 4)) = 2 + (8)/pi > 0`
∴ By the second derivative test, f has a minimum,
When x = `l/(pi + 4)`.
For this value of x,
r = `(l - 4(l/(pi + 4)))/(2pi)`
= `(pil + 4l - 4l)/(2pi(pi + 4)`
= `l/(2(pi + 4)`
= `x/(2)`
This shows that the sum of the areas of circle and square is least, when radius of the circle = `(1/2)` side of the square.

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.
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"`
