First you would want to graph the rectangle. For example, The corners of the rectangle are (0,0), (0,2), (3,0) and (3,2). You would have a rectangle with the vertical sides being 2 units in length and the horizontal sides being 3 units.

The "easy" way to find the area of a rectangle is to multiple the length of the vertical sides by the horizontal sides. In this example, 2*3=6. The calculus way would be to setup an integral from a to b of f(x)dx. a and b are the end points for x values. i.e. a <= x <= b. In this example, a = 0 and b = 3. f(x) is the function y=2. The integral from 0 to 3 of 2dx = 6.

What is the maximum area for a rectangle with an perimeter of 108 meters?

By using Differential Calculus. Any rectangle is at a maximum area when it is a square. So taking 108 and dividing by '4' We have '27' This is the length of one side of the square So its areis A(sq) = 27^2 = 729 m^2

Ho do you prove the formula for the area of a rectangle?

Use squares and try it out for yourself. Get a number of squares and make a rectangle 3 squares long by 4 squares wide. Count the squares. You should have 12 squares (or 3*4). That's the best way I know to prove the formula.
