Write a C program to read the diameter of the circle and compute the perimeter and area of the circle.
Problem Definition:
In this program, we will read the diameter of a circle. Next, we find the area and perimeter of a circle.
Source code of C program to read diameter and compute Area Perimeter of a Circle
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int diameter;
float perimeter,area;
printf("Enter the diameter of the circle: ");
scanf("%d",&diameter);
perimeter=diameter*3.14; //calculates perimeter
area=(3.14*diameter*diameter)/4;//calculates area
printf("\nThe area of a circle is %f",area);
printf("\nThe perimeter of a circle is %f",perimeter);
}
Output:
Case 1:
Enter the diameter of the circle: 5
The area of a circle is 19.625000
The perimeter of a circle is 15.700000
Case 2:
Enter the diameter of the circle: 3
The area of a circle is 7.065000
The perimeter of a circle is 9.420000
Program Explanation:
1. First, create 3 variables such as diameter, area, and perimeter of type float.
2. Next, ask the user to enter the value of diameter.
3. Calculate the area of a rectangle using formula – > area = diameter * 3.142
4. Calculate the perimeter of a rectangle using formula – > perimeter= (3.14 * diameter * diameter)/4
5. Finally, display area and rectangle using printf statement.
