Show that among rectangles of given area, the square has the least perimeter.

Solution
Let x, y be the sides of rectangle and k2 be the area where k > 0.
therefore space space straight x space straight y space equals space straight k squared space space space space rightwards double arrow space space space space straight y space equals space straight k squared over straight x
Let  straight P space equals space 2 straight x plus 2 straight y space equals space 2 straight x plus 2 straight k squared over straight x                                            open square brackets because space of space left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis close square brackets
       dP over dx equals 0 space space space give space us space 2 minus fraction numerator 2 straight k squared over denominator straight x squared end fraction space equals space 0 comma space space space space space space rightwards double arrow space space space straight x squared space equals space straight k squared space space space space rightwards double arrow space space straight x space space equals straight k comma space space minus straight k
Rejecting x = -k,     we get  x = k
    fraction numerator straight d squared straight P over denominator dx squared end fraction space equals space fraction numerator 4 straight k squared over denominator straight x cubed end fraction

therefore space space space space straight P space is space minimum space when space straight x space equals space straight k comma space space space space straight y space equals space straight k squared over straight k space equals space straight k space space space space straight i. straight e. space space when space rectangle space is space straight a space square.
