Hello everybody, welcome back! Here we learn how to find the area of a triangle whenbase and height of a triangle are given.
We calculate the area by multiplying base and height and dividing it with 2. Area = ( base * height ) / 2
You can also watch the video on YouTube here.
We can also calculate area of triangle when all sides are given, using Herons formula. That can be found here.

Task :
To find the area of a triangle whenbase and height of a triangle are given.
Approach :
- Read
baseandheightof a triangleusinginput()orraw_input() - Multiply both
baseandheightand divide it with 2 Area a = ( base * height ) / 2- Print the result.
Program :
b = float(input('Enter base of a triangle: '))
h = float(input('Enter height of a triangle: '))
area = (b * h) / 2
print('The area of the triangle is %0.2f' % area)
Output :
[Area of a triangle ( base and height ) - programminginpython.com]Area of a triangle ( base and height ) programminginpython.com
