For the largest area, half the fence is used parallel to the river, and the other half is used for the two ends of the rectangular space.
The dimensions are 475 m by 237.5 m.
_____
Let x represent the length along the river. Then the area (A) is found as
.. A = x*(950 -x)/2
This equation describes a parabola with its vertex (maximum) halfway between the zeros of x=0 and x=950. That is, the maximum area is achieved when half the fence is used parallel to the river.

Step-by-step explanation:
The graph you see there is called a parabola. The general equation for the graph is as below
To find the equation we need to find the constants a and b. The constant b is just how much we're lifting the parabola by. Notice it's lifted by 1 on the y axis.
To find a it's a little more tricky. Let's use the graph to find a value for a by plugging in values we know. We know that b is 1 from the previous step, and we know that when x=1, y=3. Let's use that!
Awesome, we've found both values. And we can write the result.
I'll include a plotted graph with our equation just so you can verify it is indeed the same.
