Python program calculates the area of a triangle

Python example大全

In this program, you will learn to calculate the area of a triangle and display it.

To understand this example, you should understand the followingPython programmingTopic:

If a, b, and c are the three sides of a triangle. Then,

s = (a+b+c)/2
area = √(s(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c))

Source code

# Use Python program to calculate the area of a triangle
a = 5
b = 6
c = 7
# Uncomment the following to get input from the user
# a = float(input('Enter the first side: '))
# b = float(input('Enter the second side: '))
# c = float(input('Enter the third side: '))
# Calculate the semi-perimeter
s = (a + b + c) / 2
# Calculate the area
area = (s*(s-a)*(s-b)*(s-c)) ** 0.5
print('The area of the triangle is %0.2f' %area)

Output result

The area of the triangle is 14.70

In this program, we useHeron's formulaGiven three sides, you can calculate the area of a triangle.

If you need to calculate the area of a triangle based on user input, you can useinput() function.
