Perimeter (P) = 2 · Length(L) + 2 · Width (W) → P = 2L + 2W
Solve for either L or W (I am solving for L).
200 - 2W = 2L
(200 - 2W)/2 = L
100 - W = L

Area (A) = Length (L) · Width (W)
              = (100 - W) · W
              = 100W - W²

Find the derivative, set it equal to 0, and solve:
dA/dW = 100 - 2W
     0    = 100 - 2W
     W  = 50

refer to the equation above for L: 
100 - W = L
100 - 50 = L
        50  = L

Dimensions for the maximum Area are 50 ft x 50 ft
