I'm trying to find the maximum area of the triangle. My first thought here was to take the derivative of the function. Then set that equal to zero to find the critical numbers. Having the critical numbers would allow me to plug those numbers back in and see which of those numbers gives me the best area of the triangle. This is where I'm stuck though. I'm not sure how to proceed from here.
Critical numbers are x=-1.59318314, x= 0.90786215, and x = 5.18532098.
Would I simply use the area of the triangle formula now? I've been stuck for a few days. Thanks for the help.
