Draw a rough sketch, rectangle, one side is barn, two sides are \"a\", and one side is\"b\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter of new fence is 2a +b =100,,, or b=100 - 2 a
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Lets tabulate \"a\" vs \"b\" vs Area ,,,(area = a *b )
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "a,,,,,,,,,,b,,,,,,,,,,,Area
\n" ); document.write( "0,,,,,,,,,,100,,,,,,,,,,,0
\n" ); document.write( "10,,,,,,,,80,,,,,,,,,,800
\n" ); document.write( "20,,,,,,,,60,,,,,,,,,1200
\n" ); document.write( "24,,,,,,,,52,,,,,,,,,1248
\n" ); document.write( "25,,,,,,,50,,,,,,,,,,1250,,,,,MAX
\n" ); document.write( "26,,,,,,,,,48,,,,,,,,,1248
\n" ); document.write( "30,,,,,,,40,,,,,,,,,,1200
\n" ); document.write( "40,,,,,,,20,,,,,,,,,,,,800
\n" ); document.write( "50,,,,,,,,0,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,0
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Max Area is 1250 sq ft,,,,with dim of 25 by 50 , (50 opposite barn side) \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
