Question

The circumference of a rectangle is 2*(length + width), where length and width are

length and width of the rectangle. Write a program that asks for the length and width of

two rectangles. The program should tell the user which rectangle has the greater

circumference, or if the circumferences are the same

Answer 1

Source code

#include <iostream>


using namespace std;


int main()
{
    int length_A;
    int width_A;
    int length_B;
    int width_B;
    cout<<"\nEnter details for rectangle A: \n";
    cout<<"\nLength: ";
    cin>>length_A;
    cout<<"\nWidth: ";
    cin>>width_A;
    
    cout<<"\nEnter details for rectangle B: \n";
    cout<<"\nLength: ";
    cin>>length_B;
    cout<<"\nWidth: ";
    cin>>width_B;
    
    int circ_A=2*(length_A+width_A);
    int circ_B=2*(length_B+width_B);
    
    if(circ_A>circ_B){
        cout<<"\nRectangle A has greater circumference";
    }
    else if(circ_B>circ_A){
        cout<<"\nRectangle B has greater circumference";
    }
    else{
        cout<<"\nThe circumferences are the same";
    }
    return 0;
}
