Java program to find hypotenuse of a right angled triangle using the Pythagorean theorem


Write a Java program to calculate the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle using the Pythagorean theorem:

where

  • c is the hypotenuse.
  • a and b are the lengths of the other two sides of the triangle.

Solution

import java.util.Scanner;
public class HypotenuseCalculator 
{
    public static void main(String args[]) 
	{
        Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter the length of side a: ");
        double a = sc.nextDouble();
        System.out.print("Enter the length of side b: ");
        double b = sc.nextDouble();
        double hypotenuse = Math.sqrt(Math.pow(a, 2) + Math.pow(b, 2));
        System.out.println("The length of the hypotenuse is: " + hypotenuse);
    }
}
