I have given area of a rectangle and I have to select the length and width of the rectangle in such a way that the perimeter of the rectangle comes out to be maximum.

Area = 4.3475
 

Maximize area

Perimeter is minimized when it is a square (length/width=1).
Perimeter is maximized when length/width -> zero or infinity (width/length -> zero).
Regards
