Calculate Area Of Triangle By Herons Formula And Tell If It Is Equilateral Or Pythagorean

Feb 24, 2014

Basically its a program where a user is prompted to enter the length of all three sides of a triangle and the program calculates the area by herons formula and can tell if the triangle is equilateral or Pythagorean. I am having trouble entering a formula to where all three enter sides cant possibly be a triangle. Here is my Program. Where the '?' is stated.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Triangle {
public static void main(String[] args){
double a;
double b;
double c;
double s;
double x;
double area;

How To Calculate Area Of Triangle / Circle / Rectangle

Mar 3, 2015

package areatest;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class AreaTest {
 
public static double areaTriangle (double length, double width){ //How to calculate the area of a triangle
return .5f * length * width;

[Code] .....

When I try to get the area of a rectangle it gives me 9 no matter what input I give it. When I try to get the area of a triangle it gives me .5 no matter what input I give it. Same with the circle but it always gives me 12.56370...

Returns Area Of Triangle / Unless Triangle Not Value So Return String?

Dec 28, 2014

I'm doing a problem where the area of a triangle is returned (if valid). However, I want to return a message (i.e. 'triangle is not valid) if the triangle is invalid.

I'm not sure how to go about to doing this as my method (called area) will only let me return doubles. Possible to return a string in an else within my area method?

public class MyTriangle {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//triangle is valid if the sum of any two sides is bigger than the third
System.out.println(isValid(3, 4, 5));
System.out.println(area(543, 4, 5));

[Code] ...

System.out.print("Please enter the three lengths of your Triangle: ");
double a = console.nextDouble();

Take Input From User And Calculate Value Of PI Using Formula

Sep 6, 2014

I'm supposed to take an input from the user and calculate the value of pi using this formula: 1/1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 etc... so on alternating between minus and plus and denominator increasing by 2 every time. If the user inputs the number 3, then it should print (1/1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + 1/9) *4. The idea here is that the higher the input of the user is, the higher the equation will be close to pi.

This is what i have so far :

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Pi
{
public static void main(String[] args) {
double first = 1/1;
double second = 1/3;
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a Number to calculate how far you want the formula to perform: ");
double count = input.nextDouble();
}
}

This is literally all i have, i know i need a while loop and an if loop.

Find Area Of Triangle / Square / Rectangle Or Trapezoid

I started with finding the area of a triangle, but now I'm trying to ask a user what kind of shape they want the area for, then ask questions to get the area. I can't figure out how to take the shape a person types to go to a certain case. It also says shape hasn't been initialized. I don't know how to do that.

Input Length And Width - Calculate And Print Perimeter And Area Of A Rectangle

Feb 16, 2015

Create a program to input the length and width of a rectangle and calculate and print the perimeter and area of the rectangle. To do this you will need to write a Rectangle class and a separate runner class. Your program should include instance variables, constructors, an area method, a perimeter method, a toString method, accessor and mutator methods, and user input. Your runner class should include 3 Rectangle objects. One default rectangle, one coded rectangle, and one user input rectangle. All methods should be tested in the runner class.

This is my code:

import java.util.Scanner;
 public class Rectangle {
double length;
double width;
public Rectangle() {

[Code] ...

What have I done??? I have created this program using the few different resources with which I am supplied, but I don't understand the resources.

Pythagorean Triples Using A For Loop

Sep 10, 2014

I have generated many errors in my code for this program but I particularly want to focused on the first error that comes up. Here is the outline of my code:

//a java application that prints the table of pythagorean triples that go up to 500 using a for loop
public class luby{
 //main method executes java application
 public static void main(String args[]){
 //declare variables
 
for(int side_1=1; int side_1 <=500; side_1++){
for(int side_2=1; int side_2 <=500; side_2++){

Here is the output of my code when I attempt to compile it:

C:UsersCourtneyDesktopchapter five exercises for javaluby.java:12: error: '.class' expected
for(int side_1=1; int side_1 <=500; side_1++){

for(int side_1=1; int side_1 <=500; side_1++){

The first error I want to focus on is the class error; I will focus on the remaining errors once this error is resolved

Pythagorean Theorem Program - Code Isn't Working When Written In OOP Style

Feb 11, 2014

I'm attempting to make a simple Pythagorean Theorem program (A squared + B squared = C squared) but am running into problems when I write it as object oriented. The darn thing works when written as a simple process, but that isn't Java now is it? Here's the simple:

public class PythagoreanTheorem extends ConsoleProgram {
public void run() {
println ("Finding C from A and B.");
double a1 = readDouble("Input A: ");
double b1 = readDouble("Input B: ");
double aSq = (a1*a1);
double bSq = (b1*b1);
double cSq = (aSq + bSq);
double c = Math.sqrt(cSq);
println ("C = " + c);

How To Write A Program Using Quadratic Formula In JGrasp

Mar 4, 2015

Write a program named QuadraticTable.java that takes three double arguments and two int arguments (in that order) from the command line. The three doubles will represent a, b, and c from the quadratic formula.

If the discriminant is non-negative, find and print the solutions to the quadratic equation. (The plus/minus sign in the quadratic formula indicates that you would separately perform both operations). Otherwise print "no real solutions".

Then using the last two int arguments as x_min and x_max, print a table of x and ax

2 + bx + c

values using the a, b, and c read in as command line arguments.

Sample output: (command line arguments were 1 0 2 -3 3)

1x^2 + 0x + 2 has no real solutions.

X 1x^2 + 0x + 2

-3 11

-2 6

-1 2

0 2

1 3

2 6

3 11
