If you look at the attached graphic, you will see that the altitude (or height) of an equilateral triangle is:
Height = side length * sq root (3) / 2
Area = side^2 * sq root (3) / 4
Height = side length * sq root (3) / 2
Area = side^2 * sq root (3) / 4
Here it is given that the width is x ft and total length of the fence is 2400 ft .
Let the length be y ft
So we have
Let A represents area, and area is the product of length and width .
So we get
Substituting the value of y, we will get
Second part
The area is maximum at the vertex, and vertex is
And
And that's the required dimensions .
