C program to calculate the perimeter of a rectangle
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
float height, width, perimeter;
printf("Enter height and width: ");
scanf("%f %f", &height, &width);
perimeter = 2 * (height + width);
printf("Perimeter = %.2f\n", perimeter);
return 0;
}
Output:
Output of the above program is
Enter height and width: 5 3.5
Perimeter = 17.00
How it works
- The user enters the height and width.
- We use the formula
2 * (height + width)and print the result.
