Question

Write a program in JAVA to find area of Trapezoid class 8

Answer 1

Answer:

package Area;

import java.util.Scanner;

class Trapezoid

{

       public static void main(String[] args)

       {

        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in());

 double base1, base2, height, Area, Median;  

 System.out.println(" Please Enter First Base of a Trapezoid =  ");

 base1 = sc.nextDouble();

 System.out.println(" Please Enter Second Base of a Trapezoid =  ");

 base2 = sc.nextDouble();

 System.out.println(" Please Enter the Height of a Trapezoid = ");

 height = sc.nextDouble();

 Area = 0.5 * (base1 + base2) * height;

                System.out.format("\n The Area of a Trapezoid = %.2f\n",Area);

}

}

Explanation:

area of trapezoid is given by:- 0.5*(sum of two parallel sides)*height

so the two parallel sides of the trapezoid and the height are taken as input by user and stored in variables

base1 , base2 and height respectively.

data type of each variable is taken as double as the input and area could be in decimal values.

then area is calculated by 0.5* (base1 + base2) * height

and is ready to get printed.
