Tan is given a wire that is 12cm long and asked to form a 4 sided figure. The 4 sided figure formed should have 4 right angles inside the figure. What is the biggest area he can form?


1) 5 cm2
2) 8cm2
3) 9cm2
4)10cm2.

Pl give me the ans with explanation. Thx.

Hi

given the same perimeter, forming a square will give you the largest area - a proper proof is by using calculus, but you can do a simple listing to deduce this fact.

cheers.

According to me is ans 1 correct....pl help.[/quote]Hi

answer is (3) 9 cm²

You can list the possible dimensions, and you will notice that the area will finally converge to 9 cm²
Possible dimensions of rectangle with perimeter 12 cm
- 1 cm x 5 cm --> 5cm²
- 2 cm x 4 cm --> 8cm²
- 2.5 cm x 3.5 cm --> 8.75 cm²
- 2.9 cm x 3.1 cm --> 8.99 cm²
- 3 cm x 3 cm --> 9 cm²

cheers.
