Hi ppl.....can any body here help me to write this very important C++ prog. plz!!!?

Question

write a program (in C++) to do the following tasks?
1) accept the coordinates of 3 points.

2) check whether these points form a triangle or not.

3)if the given 3 points form a triangle find its area.

4) you should write a function that calculate the distance between 2 points and calculate the slope of the line connects these 2 points.

5) write a function to find the area of a triangle using the formula:
sqrt( S(S-A)(S-B)(S-C) )
where A,B,C are the triangle sides and S=(A+B+C)/2 ( half of the circumference)
=========================
plz plz plz help me to do it [-o< THX Alot....

Answer 1

Let me give a try I am only a begineer and I am in the 10 grade so here it goes. I am not going to write it just going to tell you wat to do in the main();.

What we know about a triangle I don;t know how to prove wheater it is a triangle or not. Try a^2+b^2 =c^2 by using the distance formula.

area of triangle = (base * hieght)2
the base could be any side first figure out which 1 then use the distance formula go here for it http://www.purplemath.com/modules/distform.htm.

Answer 2

Of three points, A,B,C
Check the slope of A-B, B-C, A-C. If any of the slopes are the same, you have parallel lines and thus no triangle. So, to do (2), do (4) first.
If you know the distance between A-B, B-C, A-C, you can calculate the area with the formula, so (5) also depends on (4).

You write your own code. yA isn't a site to do your homework, since if you don't do it yourself, you don't pass the class!

Answer 3

no thank u i dont like to waste my time doing someone else's work no srry i just don't know how to do C++ but my older sister can do it
