Situation 2

The length of the windowpane in Amin’s room is 1.2 m and its width is 1.14 m. The window consists of two windowpanes of the same size. The right part of the windowpane has broken and needs to be replaced. Calculate the area, in m2, of the broken windowpane.

Solution:

\(1.2\ m\times1.14\ m\div2= \)
