C Program to Calculate Area & Perimeter of the Rectangle
This C program calculates the area and perimeter (circumference) of the rectangle. The length and breadth of a rectangle are given by user.
Following formula are used to clculate area and perimeter of rectangle:
Area of Rectangle = length * breadth
Perimeter of Rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)
C Source Code: Area & Perimeter of Rectangle
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
int main()
{
/* Declaring variables */
float length, breadth, area, perimeter;
/* Reading length and breadth from user */
printf("Enter length of the rectangle = ");
scanf("%f", &length);
printf("Enter breadth of the rectangle = ");
scanf("%f", &breadth);
/* Calculating area and perimeter */
area = length * breadth;
perimeter = 2 * (length * breadth);
/* Displaying result */
printf("Area of rectangle = %f", area);
printf("\nPerimeter of rectangle = %f", perimeter);
return 0;
}
Output
Enter length of the rectangle = 23 Enter breadth of the rectangle = 17 Area of rectangle = 391.000000 Perimeter of rectangle = 782.000000
