    If A is the area and 2s the sum of the 3 sides of a triangle, then:

    A) \[A\le \frac{{{s}^{2}}}{3\sqrt{3}}\]                  

    B) \[A=\frac{{{s}^{2}}}{2}\]

    C) \[A>\frac{{{s}^{2}}}{\sqrt{3}}\]                     

    D) none of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    For a given perimeter an equilateral triangle has the maximum area
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{A}_{\max }}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}\,\,{{\left( \frac{2s}{3} \right)}^{2}}=\frac{{{s}^{2}}}{3\sqrt{3}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[A\le {{A}_{\max }}.\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[A\le \frac{{{s}^{2}}}{3\sqrt{3}}\]
