Algorithm to Find Area of a Equilateral Triangle

Follow the below given algorithm to write a program to find the area of a equilateral Triangle; as follows:

Take input side of triangle. Store it in variable.
Calculate area of an Equilateral triangle using (sqrt 3)/4 * a^2
Finally, print the value of Area of an Equilateral triangle.

C Program to Find Area of a Equilateral Triangle using sqrt

#include<math.h>
int main()
{
	float area,a;
	printf("enter side of the triangle: ");
	scanf("%f",&a);
 
	area=(sqrt(3)/4)*a*a;
	printf("AOET:%f\n",area);
	return 0;
}

The result of the above c program; as follows:

enter side of the triangle: 5
AOET:10.825317

C Program to Find Area of a Equilateral Triangle using Function

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
float area(float a)
{
	float Ar=(sqrt(3)/4)*a*a;
        return Ar;
}
 
int main()
{
	float Ar,a;
	printf("enter side of the triangle: ");
	scanf("%f",&a);
 
	
	Ar=area(a);
	printf("AOET: %f\n",Ar);
	return 0;
}

The result of the above c program; as follows:

enter side of the triangle: 7
AOET: 21.217623

C Program to Find Area of a Equilateral Triangle using Pointer

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
float area(float *a,float *Ar)
{
  
	*Ar=(sqrt(3)/4)* (*a) * (*a);   
    
}
 
int main()
{
	float a,Ar;
	printf("enter side: ");
	scanf("%f",&a);
	area(&a,&Ar);
	printf("AOET: %f\n",Ar);
	return 0;
}

The result of the above c program; as follows:
