Find the area of the largest rectangle with one corner on the origin, opposite corner on the parabola f(x)=-x^2+12, and sides parallel to the axes

Solution

So Assuming Opposite Corner is at (x,y)

Then

y = x2 +12

Since sides are parallel to axes

Now Length = x

Height = y = x2 + 12

Area

A = x*(x2 +12)

dA/dx = (x2+ 12) + x*(2x) = 3x2 + 12

Which is alays +ve

So no maximum value Since it can be
