in triangle ΔABC: BC=1, ∠B=2∠A. find the maximum area of ΔABC.
$${in}\:{triangle}\:\Delta{ABC}:\:{BC}=\mathrm{1},\:\angle{B}=\mathrm{2}\angle{A}. \\ $$$${find}\:{the}\:{maximum}\:{area}\:{of}\:\Delta{ABC}. \\ $$

∠A+∠B+∠C =π ; 3∠A+∠C=π let ∠A =α ; ∠B=2α ; ∠C=π−3α ((BC)/(sin α)) = ((AC)/(sin 2α)) ⇒ (1/(sin α)) = ((AC)/(2sin α cos α)) AC= 2cos α Area of ΔABC = (1/2).1.AC.sin (π−3α) A(α)=(1/2)(2 cos α sin 3α) A(α)=(1/2)(sin 4α+sin 2α) A′(α)=(1/2)(4cos 4α+2cos 2α)=0 ⇒ 2cos 4α+cos 2α = 0 ⇒2(2cos^2 2α−1)+cos 2α = 0 ⇒4cos^2 2α+cos 2α−2=0 cos 2α = ((−1+ (√(33)))/8) = 0.593 sin 2α =(√(1−(0.593)^2 )) = 0.805 Thus A(α)_(max) = (1/2)(2sin 2α cos 2α+sin 2α) A(α)_(max) = (1/2)sin 2α(2cos 2α+1) A(α)_(max) = (1/2)(0.805)(2.186)=0.8798

yes. the exact value is ((((√(33))+3)(√(((√(33))+3)((√(33))−1))))/(64))≈0.8801
$${yes}.\:{the}\:{exact}\:{value}\:{is} \\ $$$$\frac{\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{33}}+\mathrm{3}\right)\sqrt{\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{33}}+\mathrm{3}\right)\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{33}}−\mathrm{1}\right)}}{\mathrm{64}}\approx\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{8801} \\ $$
