Kotlin Program to Find the Area of a parallelogram
In this article, we will understand how to find the area of a parallelogram. The area of a parallelogram is calculated using the formula by −
base * height
Below is a demonstration of the same −
Suppose our input is −
Base: 6 Height: 8
The desired output would be −
Area of parallelogram is: 48
Algorithm
Step 1 − START.
Step 2 − Declare three values namely base, height and myResult.
Step 3 − Define the values.
Step 4 − Calculate the area using the formula by base * height and store the result.
Step 5 − Display the result.
Step 6 − Stop.
Example 1
In this example, we will find the area of a Parallelogram with the base and height. First, we will declare and initialize the variables for base height.
val base = 5 val height = 8
Then, we will find the area using the formulae given above. The area of parallelogram will get saved in the variable myResult.
val myResult = base * height
Let us see the final example to find the area of a Parallelogram with the base and height.
fun main() { val base = 5 val height = 8 println("The sides of the parallelogram are defined as $base, $height, $base, $height") val myResult = base * height println("The area of parallelogram is: $myResult") }
Output
The sides of the parallelogram are defined as 5, 8, 5, 8 The area of parallelogram is: 40
Example 2
In this example, we will find the Area of a parallelogram −
fun main() { val base = 5 val height = 8 println("The sides of the parallelogram are defined as $base, $height, $base, $height") areaParallelogram(base, height) } fun areaParallelogram(base: Int, height: Int) { val myResult = base * height println("The area of parallelogram is: $myResult") }
Output
The sides of the parallelogram are defined as 5, 8, 5, 8 The area of parallelogram is: 40
