The wire should cut at a distance of 33.6

For given question,

Let x be the length of one side of the square.

so, the Perimeter of a square = 4x

For the remaining length of (60 - x) we make a circle.

We know that the Circumference of a circle = 2πr

So, 4x + 2πr = 60

⇒ 2πr = 60 - 4x

⇒ r = (60 - 4x)/2π

⇒ r = (30 - 2x)/π                                            

The area of the square would be,

[tex]A_s=x^{2}[/tex]

And the area of the circle would be,

[tex]\Rightarrow A_c=\pi (\frac{30-2x}{\pi} )^2\\\\\Rightarrow A_c=\frac{(30-2x)^2}{\pi}[/tex]

Thus summing the areas we get,

[tex]\Rightarrow A=A_s+A_c\\\\\Rightarrow A=x^{2} +\frac{(30-2x)^2}{\pi}[/tex]

To find the critical points we differentiate the given area with respect to 'x'

Thus we have,

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac{dA}{dx}=\frac{d[x^{2} +\frac{(30-2x)^2}{\pi}]}{dx}\\\\\Rightarrow 0=2x - \frac{4 (30-2x)}{\pi} \\\\\Rightarrow 2x = \frac{4 (30-2x)}{\pi}\\\\\Rightarrow x = \frac{60}{\pi}-\frac{4x}{\pi} \\\\\Rightarrow x (1+ \frac{4}{\pi})=\frac{60}{\pi} \\\\\Rightarrow x=8.4[/tex]

Thus the perimeter of square would be, 33.6

And the circumference of circle would be,

60 - 33.6 = 26.4

Thus, cut the wire at a distance of 33.6  and draw this length into a square and the remaining 26.4 into a circle.

Therefore, the wire should cut at a distance of 33.6
