( It's Look ugly But Believe me in actual it is very very Beautiful question )
Following tool of mathematics are may Helpful Here Like : Substitution , Geometrical interpretation , AM - GM , Circles , Straight lines , Polar substitution etc, !!

Okay Now its time to give Hint :
use Substitution : \(a\quad =\quad \alpha \sec ^{ 2 }{ \theta } \\ \\ b\quad =\quad \beta \csc ^{ 2 }{ \theta } \).

Ohh ! Now I got something
is it mean :
\(f(\theta )\quad =\quad a\quad +\quad b\quad +\quad \sqrt { { a }^{ 2 }\quad +\quad { b }^{ 2 } } \).
I think it is Perimeter of right angle triangle ?
Am i going Correct ?

Yes ! You are on right Path ! Keep Trying You will find the way :)

See Unravelling an inequality problem by Calvin Lin.

That's certainly one way to motivate the solution.
Recognizing and relating patterns is helpful in approaching such problems.

@Calvin Lin Sir I solved in this way :(Similar to your Awesome Technique )

Let \(P\quad =\quad a\quad +\quad b\quad +\quad \sqrt { { a }^{ 2 }\quad +\quad { b }^{ 2 } } \).
also Let \(\sqrt { { a }^{ 2 }\quad +\quad { b }^{ 2 } } \quad =\quad { C }_{ 1 }\quad +\quad { C }_{ 2 }\).
\(P\quad =\quad (\quad a\quad +\quad { C }_{ 2 }\quad )\quad +\quad (\quad b\quad +\quad { C }_{ 1 }\quad )\quad \).
Now For Minimum perimeter P we use AM-GM inequality
\(P\quad \ge \quad 2\sqrt { (\quad a\quad +\quad { C }_{ 2 }\quad )(\quad b\quad +\quad { C }_{ 1 }\quad ) } \\ \\ { P }_{ min }\quad =\quad 2\sqrt { (\quad a\quad +\quad { C }_{ 2 }\quad )(\quad b\quad +\quad { C }_{ 1 }\quad ) } \quad \\ \)
If and only iff :
1)- GM must be constant
2)- Equality of variable must be attained
\(\\ \bullet \quad (\quad a\quad +\quad { C }_{ 2 }\quad )(\quad b\quad +\quad { C }_{ 1 }\quad )\quad =\quad constant\\ \\ \bullet \quad (\quad a\quad +\quad { C }_{ 2 }\quad )\quad =\quad (\quad b\quad +\quad { C }_{ 1 }\quad )\quad =\quad r\quad (say)\\ \\ { P }_{ min }\quad =\quad 2r\quad \).
Now Same as Yours !
Is This is correct ? Calvin Sir ?

what about area at this stage?@Deepanshu Gupta
Log in to reply
I don't think that we can do more for calculating area from above information in this particular question . what do you think ? @sandeep Rathod
Log in to reply
ohh is it a famous problem? I don't know about this . Actually this question was giving to me by a friend of me as a challange !
So I Liked it after solving it So i share this ! ,
But i solved it in slightly different manner as that calvin sir posted ( also my friend also help me little in how to starting this problem )
Log in to reply
So what is your Slightly different approach Can you post it ! please Thanks ! @Deepanshu Gupta

I had Posted it @KARAN SHEKHAWAT
But I'am not 100% sure that it is correct or not !

I am too trying it with \( \sqrt{\frac{x_1^2+\cdots+x_n^2}{n}}\ge\frac{x_1+\cdots+x_n}{n}\) for the third term.
