Answer: Option 'c' is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Perimeter of rectangular region = 144 feet
We need to find the maximum area .
As we know that the area will be maximum iff it is a square.
So, perimeter is given by
[tex]2(l+b)=144\\\\l+b=\dfrac{144}{2}=72\\\\l+b=72\\\\l+l=72\ (\because\ l=b)\\\\2l=72\\\\l=\dfrac{72}{2}=36[/tex]
So, the maximum area would be
[tex]Side^2=36^2=1296\ sq.\ feet[/tex]
Hence, Option 'c' is correct.
