Objective: find dimensions of a door that fits inside the arcade (touches the
arcade at too points, as in the figure) with the door covering a maximum
surface.
Assume that the floor is the x-axis and the y-axis is at the centre of the door
(see figure above).
The arcade is given by the polynomial function.
arc(x)=-a0x8-a1x6-a2x4-a3x2+a0+a1+a2+a3
where the coefficients, a0,a1,dots are the digits of your student ID in a reverse
order. (exp: ID =153310, then p(x)=0+x+3x2+3x3+5x4+x5)
Required work:
You need to find the coordinate of the contact Arcade-Door points, such
that the door is the largest possible (in term of surface, the maximum
surface). Note that the problem is symmetric, you need to find only one
contact point (between 0 and 1) and to other one is simply the negative
value.
You need to consider 4 cases: 2 rectangle doors and two square shaped
doors.
For each case you change the arcade equation by considering the ID
digits of each group member. If you are less then 4 students in the
group just permute the digits.
You need to plot in your OCTAVE/MATLAB code the arcade and the
door (use the plotting command for the doors: Rectangle (position',
[x_pos, y_pos, door_width, door_hight], linewidth', value)
x_pos, y_pos: are the left-bottom position of the door.
