I have done a Cap GC analysis of Xylene mix.
I have the Chromatogram and the chromatogram report which shows the retantion time peak area and area%.
how can I calculate the relative peak area from the above information?
is the relative peak area meance the area on the chromatogram report?

The retention time peak area is the area under the particular peak ,the % area is the particular peak area divided by total area of all the peaks in the chromatogram.So to find out the content check the area % corresponding to the retention time of the compound of interest.

Ya you have to integrate your peaks, I believe. What are the units of your axes? If you have the numerical data, like in excel, you can do a numerical integration using the trapezoid rule. Feel free to email me your data, I'll be happy to look at it.

Relative must mean relative to some other peak,or to a standard.
