All measurements are given in centimeters.

Answer 1

We have the following:

The standard window:

$\begin{gathered} A=2\cdot4 \\ A=8 \end{gathered}$

The small window:

$\begin{gathered} A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot2\cdot\frac{1}{2}\cdot4 \\ A=2 \end{gathered}$

The large window:

$\begin{gathered} A=4\cdot2\cdot4\cdot4 \\ A=128 \end{gathered}$

Therefore:

The standard window is 8 square feet

The small window is 2 square feet

The large window is 128 square feet
