C Its area reduces to one fourth of the original
D Its area reduces to one sixteenth of the original
B It's area reduces to the square root of the original

Answer 3

Why would it be halved?

Answer 4

let the width and length be a and b (it doesnt matter which way round) and the area of the temple be A. since a*b=A then (a/2)*b=A/2
