Write a program that prompts the user for the lengths of the two legs of a right triangle, and which reports the length of the hypotenuse. recall that the hypotenuse length satisfies the formula:
c =√ (a² + b²)

The following code is in c++

#include <iostream>

#include<math.h>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

   float a,b,c;

   cout<<"Enter height and base of triangle\n";

   cin>>a>>b;  //reading two sides from user

   c=sqrt(pow(a,2)+pow(b,2));  //calculating hypotenuse

   cout<<"Length of hypotenuse is "<<c;  //printing third side of triangle

   return 0;

}

OUTPUT :

Enter height and base of triangle                                                                                            

3                                                                                                                              

4                                                                                                                              

Length of hypotenuse is 5  

Explanation:

In the above code, three variables a, b and c of int type are declared. After that, it is asked from user to enter the value of a and b. The user puts the value and then c is calculated with the help of Pythagoras theorem formulae which squares the values of two sides and then adds them to calculate hypotenuse of a right angled triangle and finally c is printed to console.
