Write a c program to find the area of a trapezium

C program for area of a trapezium

C code:

#include<stdio.h>

int main(){

    float b1,b2,h;

    float area;

    printf("Enter the size of two bases and height of the trapezium : ");

    scanf("%f%f%f",&b1,&b2,&h);

    area = 0.5 * ( b1 + b2 ) * h ;

    printf("Area of trapezium is: %.3f",area);

    return 0;

}

Sample output:

Enter the size of two bases and height of the trapezium: 5 8 3

Area of trapezium is: 19.500

 

Formula of area of trapezium:

Area = (1/2) * (a + b) * h
