A window of fixed perimeter (including the base of the arch) is in the form of a rectangle surmounted by a semi-circle. The semi-circular portion is fitted with coloured glass, while the rectangular portion is fitted with clear glass. The clear glass transmits three times as much light per square metre as the coloured glass.
Suppose that y is the length and x is the breadth of the rectangular portion and Pis the perimeter.
On the basis of above information, answer the following questions.
Question. If µ is the amount of light per square metre for the coloured glass and L is the total light transmitted, then

Answer
A
Question. The ratio of the sides y x: of the rectangle so that the window transmit the maximum light is

(b) 6: 6 + π
(c) 6 +π :6
(d) 1:2
Answer
B
