A farmer wishes to enclose the maximum possible area with 100 meters of fence. The pasture is bordered by a straight cliff, which may be used as part of the fence. What is the maximum area that can be enclosed?
The dimensions are 25 and 25, making an area of 625. This is, of course, assuming that the shape must be a square. Otherwise, as someone else has stated, the shape is a circle.
