A ladder of fixed length \( h \) is to be placed along the wall such that it is free to move along the height of the wall.
Based upon the above information, answer the following questions:(i)} Express the distance \( y \) between the wall and foot of the ladder in terms of \( h \) and height \( x \) on the wall at a certain instant. Also, write an expression in terms of \( h \) and \( x \) for the area \( A \) of the right triangle, as seen from the side by an observer.

Maxima and Minima
What are Maxima and Minima of a Function?
The extrema of a function are very well known as Maxima and minima. Maxima is the maximum and minima is the minimum value of a function within the given set of ranges.
There are two types of maxima and minima that exist in a function, such as:
- Local Maxima and Minima
- Absolute or Global Maxima and Minima
