Cos Finder. Read in an angle in degrees and the length of the adjacent side to that angle in a right triangle (both as doubles). Print the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Question

Read in an angle in degrees and the length of the adjacent side to that angle in a right triangle (both as doubles). Print the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Use the formula hypotenuse = adjacent / cos(angle) to calculate.

Don't forget to convert degrees to radians before using cos. Use 3.14159 for PI

Code:

#include <iostream>

Don't forget math library!

using namespace std;

int main()

{

//YOUR_CODE

}

Answer 1

using namespace std;

#include <iostream>

#include <math.h>

#define PI (3.14159)

Go()

{

double adj=-1;

double angleRadians;

double angleDegrees=-1;

double hypot;

while (angleDegrees<=0)

{

cout << "Please input the measure of the angle in degrees :>";

cin >> angleDegrees;

}

while (adj<=0)

{

cout << "Please input the measure of the adjacent side :>";

cin >> adj;

}

angleRadians = angleDegrees/180*PI;

hypot = adj/cos(angleRadians);

cout << "The hypotenuse is " << hypot << endl;

}

int main()

{

Go();

}
