this is not very hard, I′ll post the answer later  if noone else will have done it...  but now find  (1) the greatest triangle  (2) the greatest circle  (3) the greatest trapezoid  fitting into the found blue area

Have i solved it correct, Sir ?

yes. with y=ax^2  we get p=±(1/(2a)) and blue  area=(4/(3a^2 ))
$$\mathrm{yes}.\:\mathrm{with}\:{y}={ax}^{\mathrm{2}} \:\mathrm{we}\:\mathrm{get}\:{p}=\pm\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}{a}}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{blue} \\ $$$$\mathrm{area}=\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{3}{a}^{\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$
