    Maxima and minima refer to the maximum and minimum values that a function can attain on a given interval or domain. To find the maxima and minima of a function, one must take the derivative of the function and set it equal to zero to find critical points, then test those points to determine if they represent local maxima or minima using the second derivative test. The maxima and minima values are important in optimization problems where one seeks to maximize or minimize an objective function over a given set of constraints.
