This lecture covers optimization problems, focusing on finding the global maximum or minimum of a function. Examples include determining the largest rectangle under a curve and maximizing the area of triangles inscribed in a circle. The lecture also explores finding points where functions are not differentiable and studying the sign of the derivative.
