This is face view of an evacuation   canal. It has a trapeze form. 4m  represents its small base.  1) Determinate  θ ∈ [60;90] such as the   capacity of canal is maximal.

$$\mathrm{This}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{face}\:\mathrm{view}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{an}\:\mathrm{evacuation}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{canal}.\:\mathrm{It}\:\mathrm{has}\:\mathrm{a}\:\mathrm{trapeze}\:\mathrm{form}.\:\mathrm{4m} \\ $$$$\mathrm{represents}\:\mathrm{its}\:\mathrm{small}\:\mathrm{base}. \\ $$$$\left.\mathrm{1}\right)\:\mathrm{Determinate}\:\:\theta\:\in\:\left[\mathrm{60};\mathrm{90}\right]\:\mathrm{such}\:\mathrm{as}\:\mathrm{the}\: \\ $$$$\mathrm{capacity}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{canal}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{maximal}. \\ $$

A=(1/2)(2sin θ)(4+4+4cos θ)  ⇒  A=8sin θ+4sin θcos θ     (dA/dθ)=8cos θ+4(d/dθ)(sin θcos θ)    = 8cos θ+4{cos θ(d/dθ)(sin θ)+sin θ(d/dθ)(cos θ)}    = 8cos θ+4(cos^2 θ−sin^2 θ)  (dA/dθ)= 8cos θ+4cos^2 θ−4sin^2 θ=0  let cos θ=t  8t+4t^2 +4t^2 −4=0  2t^2 +2t−1=0  t=−(1/2)+((√3)/2)  θ=cos^(−1) ((((√3)−1)/2))≈ 68.5293° .

$${A}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left(\mathrm{2sin}\:\theta\right)\left(\mathrm{4}+\mathrm{4}+\mathrm{4cos}\:\theta\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\:{A}=\mathrm{8sin}\:\theta+\mathrm{4sin}\:\theta\mathrm{cos}\:\theta \\ $$$$\:\:\:\frac{{dA}}{{d}\theta}=\mathrm{8cos}\:\theta+\mathrm{4}\frac{{d}}{{d}\theta}\left(\mathrm{sin}\:\theta\mathrm{cos}\:\theta\right) \\ $$$$\:\:=\:\mathrm{8cos}\:\theta+\mathrm{4}\left\{\mathrm{cos}\:\theta\frac{{d}}{{d}\theta}\left(\mathrm{sin}\:\theta\right)+\mathrm{sin}\:\theta\frac{{d}}{{d}\theta}\left(\mathrm{cos}\:\theta\right)\right\} \\ $$$$\:\:=\:\mathrm{8cos}\:\theta+\mathrm{4}\left(\mathrm{cos}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \theta−\mathrm{sin}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \theta\right) \\ $$$$\frac{{dA}}{{d}\theta}=\:\mathrm{8cos}\:\theta+\mathrm{4cos}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \theta−\mathrm{4sin}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \theta=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${let}\:\mathrm{cos}\:\theta={t} \\ $$$$\mathrm{8}{t}+\mathrm{4}{t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{4}{t}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{t}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{2}{t}−\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${t}=−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}+\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\theta=\mathrm{cos}^{−\mathrm{1}} \left(\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}−\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\right)\approx\:\mathrm{68}.\mathrm{5293}°\:. \\ $$
