Area of Triangle using Side-Angle-Side (length of two sides and the included angle)

0 0 3 minutes read

Given two integers A, B representing the length of two sides of a triangle and an integer K representing the angle between them in radian, the task is to calculate the area of the triangle from the given information.
Examples:

Input: a = 9, b = 12, K = 2
Output: 49.1
Explanation:
Area of triangle = 1 / 2 * (9 * 12 * Sin 2) = 35.12
Input: A = 2, B = 4, K = 1
Output: 3.37

Approach:
Consider the following triangle ABC with sides A, B, C, and an angle K between sides A and B.

Then, the area of the triangle can be calculated using the Side-Angle-Side formula:

$Area (ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \ A * B * sin(K)$

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ program to calculate 
// the area of a triangle when 
// the length of two adjacent 
// sides and the angle between 
// them is provided 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
float Area_of_Triangle(int a, int b, int k) 
{ 
    float area = (float)((1 / 2.0) * 
                          a * b * (sin(k))); 
 
    return area; 
} 
 
// Driver Code 
int main()
{ 
    int a = 9; 
    int b = 12; 
    int k = 2; 
 
    // Function Call 
    float ans = Area_of_Triangle(a, b, k); 
 
    // Print the final answer 
    cout << ans << endl;
}

                                     int k)
{
    float area = (float)((1 / 2.0) * 
                      a * b * Math.sin(k));
 
    return area;
}

{
    int a = 9;
    int b = 12;

    // Function Call
    float ans = Area_of_Triangle(a, b, k);
 
    // Print the final answer
    System.out.printf("%.1f",ans);
