How to Calculate Area of Right angle Triangle using C Language

C Program to Calculate Area of Right angle Triangle

Definition :

Triangle having one angle of measure 90 degree is called Right angle Triangle.

Sides of Triangle are : base , height , hypotenuse.

You can compute the area of a Tr. if you know its any two sides.

Program : 

#include <stdio.h>
 
int main() {
   int base, height;
   float area;
 
   printf("\nEnter the base of Right Angle Triangle : ");
   scanf("%d", &base);
 
   printf("\nEnter the height of Right Angle Triangle : ");
   scanf("%d", &height);
 
   area = 0.5 * base * height;
   printf("\nArea of Right Angle Triangle : %f", area);
 
   return (0);
}

Output :

Enter the base of Right Angle Triangle   : 4
Enter the height of Right Angle Triangle : 8
Area of Right Angle Triangle : 16.0
