C Program for Circumference of a Parallelogram
We are given with the sides of parallelogram and the task is to generate the circumference of a parallelogram with its given sides and display the result
What is a Parallelogram?
Parallelogram is a type of quadratic which have −
- Opposite sides parallel
- Opposite angles equal
- Polygon diagonals bisects each other
Shown in the below figure ‘a’ and ‘b’ are the sides of a parallelogram where parallel sides are shown in the figure.
Perimeter/Circumference of a parallelogram is defined as −
Circumference of Parallelogram = 2(a + b)
= 2 * a + 2 * b
Example
Input-: a = 23 and b = 12 Output-: Circumference of a parallelogram is : 70.00 Input-: a = 16.2 and b = 24 Output-: Circumference of a parallelogram is : 80.4
Algorithm
START Step 1-> Declare function to calculate circumference of parallelogram float circumference(float a, float b) return ((2 * a) + (2 * b)) Step 2-> In main() Declare float a = 23, b = 12 Call circumference(a, b) STOP
Example
#include <stdio.h>
//function for circumference of parallelogram
float circumference(float a, float b) {
return ((2 * a) + (2 * b));
}
int main() {
float a = 23, b = 12;
printf("Circumference of a parallelogram is : %.2f", circumference(a, b));
return 0;
}Output
Circumference of a parallelogram is : 70.00
