Answer to Question #264749 in C++ for Talha

Question

Q3: Write a complete Class called “Triangle”, which represents a mathematical

triangle. (10 points)

The structure has the following instance variables:

1. base – double value representing the base of a triangle

2. height – double value representing the height of the rectangle

The structure has the following methods

1. Constructor - This constructor takes two formal parameters representing the base and height respectively. The parameters are used to initialize the corresponding instance variables.

2. getBase - This method returns the base value.

3. getHeight - This method returns the height value.

4. setBase - This method updates the base value with the single parameter.

5. setHeight - This method updates the height value with the single parameter.

6. Area - This is a static method that takes as formal parameter a Triangle reference and returns a double representing the area of the triangle.

Answer 1

class Triangle {
  private double base;
  private double height;
  public Triangle(double base, double height) {
    this.base = base;
    this.height = height;
  }
  public double getBase(){return base;}
  public double getHeight(){return height;}
  public void setBase(double base) {this.base =base;}
  public void setHeight(double h) {height=h;}
  public double getArea() {return 0.5 * base * height;} 
}
