find the area of a triangle in python

To find the area of a triangle in Python, you need to first import the math module. Then, you need to know the lengths of two of the sides of the triangle and the angle between them. If you have these measurements, you can use the following formula to calculate the area of the triangle:

main.py
area = (1/2) * a * b * sin(theta)

2 lines

where a and b are the lengths of two sides of the triangle and theta is the angle between them.

Here's the code to compute the area of a triangle in Python:

main.py
import math

# Define the lengths of two sides and the angle between them
a = 3
b = 4
theta = math.radians(45)

# Calculate the area of the triangle
area = (1/2) * a * b * math.sin(theta)

# Print the result
print("The area of the triangle is:", area)
252 chars
13 lines

This will output the following:

main.py
The area of the triangle is: 4.242640687119285
47 chars
2 lines
