The area of a trapezium is defined by function š‘“ and given by š‘“(š‘„) = (10 + š‘„) √(100 - x 2 ) , then the area when it is maximised is:

(a) 75 cm 2          (b) 7 √3 cm 2

(c) 75 √3 cm 2     (d) 5 cm 2

Question 34 The area of a trapezium is defined by function š‘“ and given by š‘“(š‘„) = (10 + š‘„) āˆš("100 āˆ’ š‘„2" ) , then the area when it is maximised is: (a) 75 cm2 (b) 7 āˆš3 cm2 (c) 75 āˆš3 cm2 (d) 5 cm2 š‘“(š‘„) = (š’™+šŸšŸŽ) (āˆš(šŸšŸŽšŸŽāˆ’š’™šŸ)) Since A has a square root It will be difficult to differentiate Let Z = [š‘“(š‘„)]2 = (š‘„+10)^2 (100āˆ’š‘„2) Where f'(x) = 0, there Zā€™(x) = 0 Differentiating Z Z =(š‘„+10)^2 " " (100āˆ’š‘„2) Differentiating w.r.t. x Zā€™ = š‘‘((š‘„ + 10)^2 " " (100 āˆ’ š‘„2))/š‘‘š‘˜ Zā€™ = [(š‘„ + 10)^2 ]^ā€² (100 āˆ’ š‘„^2 )+(š‘„ + 10)^2 " " (100 āˆ’ š‘„^2 )^ā€² Zā€™ = 2(š‘„ + 10)(100 āˆ’ š‘„^2 )āˆ’2š‘„(š‘„ + 10)^2 Zā€™ = 2(š‘„ + 10)[100 āˆ’ š‘„^2āˆ’š‘„(š‘„+10)] Zā€™ = 2(š‘„ + 10)[100 āˆ’ š‘„^2āˆ’š‘„^2āˆ’10š‘„] Zā€™ = 2(š‘„ + 10)[āˆ’2š‘„^2āˆ’10š‘„+100] Zā€™ = āˆ’šŸ’(š’™ + šŸšŸŽ)[š’™^šŸ+šŸ“š’™+šŸ“šŸŽ] Putting š’…š’/š’…š’™=šŸŽ āˆ’4(š‘„ + 10)[š‘„^2+5š‘„+50] =0 (š‘„ + 10)[š‘„^2+5š‘„+50] =0 (š‘„ + 10) [š‘„2+10š‘„āˆ’5š‘„āˆ’50]=0 (š‘„ + 10) [š‘„(š‘„+10)āˆ’5(š‘„+10)]=0 (š’™ + šŸšŸŽ)(š’™āˆ’šŸ“)(š’™+šŸšŸŽ)=šŸŽ So, š‘„=šŸ“ & š’™=āˆ’šŸšŸŽ Since x is length, it cannot be negative āˆ“ x = 5 Finding maximum area of trapezium A = (š‘„+10) āˆš(100āˆ’š‘„2) = (5+10) āˆš(100āˆ’(5)2) = (15) āˆš(100āˆ’25) = 15 āˆš75 = 15 āˆš(25 Ɨ 3) = 15 Ɨ āˆššŸšŸ“ Ɨ āˆššŸ‘ = 15 Ɨ 5 Ɨ āˆš3 = 75āˆššŸ‘ cm2 So, the correct answer is (C)
