C Program Triangle Area 2 Methods

This C program finds the area of Triangle using 2 methods. This is a part of Mumbai University MCA College C Programs MCA Sem 1.

The area of triangle can be found by knowing its height and width or by knowing the length of all side.

#include<stdio.h>

#include<conio.h>

#include<math.h>

void main()

{ clrscr();

float bs,ht,a,b,c,s;

float area;

int k;

printf("If you want to use base n height method then enter 1\n");

printf("If you want to use sides method then enter 2\n");

printf("Enter your choice:");

scanf("%d",&k);

switch(k)

{

case 1:

printf("Enter the base and the height of the triangle:");

scanf("%f%f",&bs,&ht);

area=0.5*bs*ht;

break;

case 2:

printf("Enter the three sides of the triangle:");

scanf("%f%f%f",&a,&b,&c);

s=(a+b+c)/2;

area=sqrt(s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c));

break;

}

printf("The area of the triangle is:%f",area);

getch();

}

Hope this Program is useful to you in some sense or other. Keep on following this blog for more Mumbai University MCA College Programs. Happy Programming and Studying.
