Let 'x' metre be the radius of the semi-circular opening mounded on the length '2x' side of rectangle. Then, let 'y' be the breadth of the rectangle.

Then, perimeter of the window = 10m

2πx2+2x+y+y=10

x + 2x + 2y + = 10.

y=10(π+2)π2.

Let the area of the window be A.

Then, A = 12(πx2)+2xy.

=πx22+2x·[10(x+2)x2].

=πx2+20x2πx24x22

12 [-πx2- 4x2 + 20x].

So, ddx=12 [ -2πx - 8x + 20]

And d2dx2=12 [ -2π -

From option let it be isosceles where AB = AC then

x = r 2 ( h r ) 2            

r 2 h 2 r 2 + 2 r h

x = 2 h r h 2 . . . . . . . . ( i )

 Now ar ( Δ A B C ) = Δ = 1 2 B C × A L

Δ = 1 2 × 2 2 h r a 2 × h        

then  x = 2 × 3 r 2 × r 9 r 2 4 = 3 2 r f r o m ( i )

B C = 3 r    

So A B = h 2 + x 2 = 9 r 2 4 + 3 r 2 4 = 3 r .

Hence Δ be equilateral having each side of length 3 r .
