Java Program

The Java program prompts the user to enter the base and the height of the triangle. It computes the area of the triangle using the formula. The program displays the area to the console window.

import java.util.Scanner;

    double b= s.nextDouble();

    System.out.println("Enter the height of the Triangle:");
    double h= s.nextDouble();

    //Area = (width*height)/2
    double area=(b*h)/2;
    System.out.println("Area of Triangle is: " + area);
