JAVA TRIANGLE AREA: Solve for the Area of a Triangle

Area is the size of the surface of an object. In this article, we will discuss about the formula and java code in solving for the area of a triangle.

Formula

h = height
b = base
A = Area of a triangle

Java Code

public class Area {
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
     
     // solve for the area of a triangle given the height and width
     double height = 3.5;
     double width = 5;
     double area;
     area=height*width/2;
     System.out.println(area);
    }
}

Output

Or you can also achieve it through user input where a user will provide the value for the height and width.

Java Code

import java.util.Scanner; 
public class Area {
    
    public static void main(String[] args) {
     
     // solve for the area of a triangle given the 
     //height and width will be provided by user
     Scanner console=new Scanner(System.in);
     System.out.println("Enter the triangle's width: ");
     double height = console.nextDouble();
     System.out.println("Enter the triangle's base: ");
     double width  = console.nextDouble();
     double area=height*width/2;
     System.out.println("The area of the triangle is "+area);
    }
}

Output
