The greatest area of a polygon with a given perimeter is that of a regular polygon. A regular rectangle is one that has all sides the same length -- a square. The side length of a square with 100 ft perimeter is 25 ft. The area of a square with such a side length is

A = (25 ft)² = 625 ft²

The maximum possible area is 625 ft².

In the attached, x is the length of one side. The area versus side length is plotted. The maximum is seen to be 625 ft² for a side length of 25 ft.

A smaller square is located inside a larger square. the length of the smaller square is 7 cm, and the length of the square is 12

patriot [66]

Let S=larger square side and s=smaller square side. The area between the larger and smaller is simple the larger area minus the smaller area. The area of any square being s^2. So our remaining area is:

A=S^2-s^2

A=144-49=95 cm^2
