A farmer wants to fence a rectangular garden using 100 m of fencing. The maximum area he can enclose is:
- A. 400 m²
- B. 625 m²
- C. 2500 m²
- D. 1000 m²
Answer: B) 625 m²
Explanation: Perimeter = 2(l+b) = 100 → l+b = 50. Area A = l(50-l) = 50l - l². A' = 50 - 2l = 0 → l = 25. Max Area = 25 × 25 = 625 m².
