Answer:

2.67 metres squares

Explanation:

The area of a semi-circle can be calculated using the formula:

A = 1/2 * π * r^2

where A is the area of the semi-circle, π is the mathematical constant pi (approximately equal to 3.14), and r is the radius of the semi-circle.

To find the radius of the semi-circle attached to the top of the stained glass window, we can use the fact that the semi-circle has a diameter of 2.6 m (since it is attached along the 2.6 m side of the window).

The radius is half of the diameter, so:

r = 2.6 m / 2 = 1.3 m

Now we can calculate the area of the semi-circle using the formula:

A = 1/2 * π * r^2

A = 1/2 * 3.14 * (1.3 m)^2

A = 2.67 m^2 (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the area of the semi-circle is approximately 2.67 square meters
