Perhaps you have managed to enable a Slide Over view - this being a major multitasking feature of iPadOS, fully detailed in the iPad User Guide for iPadOS. 


To transform a Slide Over view, to Split Screen, use the grey drag-bar at the top of the Slide Over Window; drag downwards and to towards the side of the screen. As the view changes, lift your finger. Done.


It’s also worth noting that you can easily change a Slide Over to Full Screen view in a similar way. This time, using the same drag-bar, drag to the top-centre of the screen, then release.


You may find these overview Apple video guides to be helpful:






After viewing, you’ll be ready for the additional Multitasking Guide:

The iPad User Guide for iPadOS is also a rich source of information. Here are links to both the downloadable and online versions of the Guide:

I hope this explanation and additional information is helpful in resolving any difficulties you may be having with Multitasking features of your iPad.
