Given parameters b and h which stand for the base and the height of an isosceles triangle (i. e., a triangle that has two equal sides), write a C program that calculates: The area of the triangle; The perimeter of the triangle; And The volume of the cone formed by spinning the triangle around the line h The program must prompt the user to enter b and h (both of type double) The program must define and use the following three functions: Calc Area (base, height) //calculates and returns the area of the triangle Calc Perimeter (base, height) //calculates and returns the perimeter Calc Volume(base, height) //calculates and returns the volume

The area of the triangle is calculated as thus:

To calculate the perimeter of the triangle, the measurement of the slant height has to be derived;

Let s represent the slant height;

Dividing the triangle into 2 gives a right angled triangle;

The slant height, s is calculated using Pythagoras theorem as thus

The perimeter of the triangle is then calculated as thus;

For the volume of the cone,

when the triangle is spin, the base of the triangle forms the diameter of the cone;

Where

So,

So,

Base on the above illustrations, the program is as follows;

#include<iostream>

#include<cmath>

using namespace std;

void CalcArea(double b, double h)

{

//Calculate Area

double Area = 0.5 * b * h;

//Print Area

cout<<"Area = "<<Area<<endl;

}

void CalcPerimeter(double b, double h)

{

//Calculate Perimeter

double Perimeter = 2 * sqrt(pow(h,2)+pow((0.5 * b),2)) + b;

//Print Perimeter

cout<<"Perimeter = "<<Perimeter<<endl;

}

void CalcVolume(double b, double h)

{

//Calculate Volume

double Volume = (1.0/3.0) * (22.0/7.0) * pow((0.5 * b),2) * h;

//Print Volume

cout<<"Volume = "<<Volume<<endl;

}

int main()

{

double b, h;

//Prompt User for input

cout<<"Base: ";

cin>>b;

cout<<"Height: ";

cin>>h;

//Call CalcVolume function

CalcVolume(b,h);

//Call CalcArea function

CalcArea(b,h);

//Call CalcPerimeter function

CalcPerimeter(b,h);

return 0;
