This math topic involves solving quadratic optimization problems relating to maximizing the area of three-sided rectangular spaces, either gardens or parking lots. The questions provide the total amount of fencing and require the student to determine the optimal wall length \( x \) that maximizes the area. These problems apply concepts from quadratic equations in real-world scenarios, emphasizing optimization. Each question varies in the total length of fencing provided, challenging students to apply and adapt the same principles under different constraints.
