Let 
and 
be the sides of the rectangle. The perimeter is given to be 500m, so we are maximizing the area function 
subject to the constraint 
.
From the constraint, we find
so we can write the area function independently of:
Differentiating and setting equal to zero, we find one critical point:
which means
, so in fact the largest area is achieved with a square fence that surrounds an area of 
.

Differences:
point slope form of line:
(a) equation is
where m is slope and (x1,y1) is a point
(b)This equation of line can be determined when two points are given
(x1, y1) and (x2,y2)
slope intercept form of line:
(a) equation is
where m is a slope
b is y-intercept
(b)This equation of line can be determined when y-intercept and slope are given
Similarilties:
(a) both are equation of straight line
(b) slope is always constant in both
