So: max / min - width * height or max / min - height * height ? If we are talking about a square, where the width and height are equal then there is no difference. Otherwise, we need to know what max or min represent in order to answer this question. Generally speaking (though this should be obvies), one is being subtracted by the width and height, and the other is being subtracted by the height squared.
