The perimeter of the rectangle:
2L + 2 W = 160
A = WL
L + W = 80
A = W ( 80 -w) = -W 2 + 80 W
The quadratic: - W2 +80 W
f( W)= - W2 + 80 W has maximum at Vertex:
W = -80/-2 = 40 yard
L = 80 - 40 = 40
Maximum area obtained by square with side 40 Yard
The area : 40 * 40 = 1600 sq yds

When you find the maximum/minimum value of a function, you divide the coefficient of x^1 by -2*the coefficient of x^2.
