no figure, but from the context it appears to be a rectangle and something else. Since it's a church, and the same kind of problem has appeared here before, I assume the top portion is a semi-circle.
So, with width w and height h, the perimeter is w+2h+pi*w/2. The trim is not used between the top and bottom portions of the window.
So, we have
w+2h+pi*w/2 = 126
so,
h = 63 - (pi+2)w/4
window area is rectangle + half-circle
a = wh + pi/8 w^2
= w(63 - (pi+2)w/4) + pi/8 w^2
= 63w - pi/8 (2pi+3)w^2
da/dw = 63 - pi/4 (2pi+3)w
max/min area is where da/dw = 0
w = 252/(3pi + 2pi^2) = 8.64
Now you can figure the areas.
