Olivia has a rectangular paper with sides:
[tex]a= \frac{1}{2} m \\ \\ b= \frac{3}{4} m[/tex]

She is cutting paper along the diagonal. The resulting pieces of paper will have half of the original area.

Original area:
[tex]A=a*b= \frac{1}{2} * \frac{3}{4} = \frac{3}{8} m^{2} [/tex]

Area of resulting pieces:
[tex]A_{2} = \frac{A}{2} = \frac{ \frac{3}{8} }{2} = \frac{3}{16} m^{2} \\ \\ A_{2} =0.1875 m^{2} [/tex]
