per the article at
economics.uwo.ca/math/resources/calculus-multivariable-functions/5-partial-derivatives-optimization-constraints/content/
dy/dx = -f<sub><sub>x</sub></sub>/f<sub><sub>y</sub></sub> = -x/(2y)
dg/dx = -g<sub><sub>x</sub></sub>/g<sub><sub>y</sub></sub> = -2xy
set the two equal and you get x=0 or y = ±1/2
checking g(x,y) at those values gives maximum f(0,1) = 2
