On method to call two xml files in on activity is by using layoutmanager and assign the screen ratio for both xml files. Use relative layout in both xml. Small code snippet is 

RelativeLayout layleft = (RelativeLayout)inf.inflate(R.layout.firstxml,null);
        RelativeLayout layright = (RelativeLayout)inf.inflate(R.layout.secondxml,null);

For this you have to use the concept of visibility. Initially set visibility of second layout as GONE and when you press button set Its visibility True.

Have both the layout in a single XML. Keep the visibility of the the second layout to secondLayoutObject.setVisibility(View.GONE) initially and then on the click of the button change its visibility to secondLayoutObject.setVisibility(View.Visible).
