Write a program that asks the user to type thecoordinate of 2 points, A and B (in a plane), and thenwrites the distance between A and B.
Write a program to calculate the surface area and volume of a square pyramid.
A square pyramid has a base that is square and all triangle faces are congruent isosceles triangles. (An isosceles triangle is a triangle in which two of the sides are equal.
Length of the base: a
Height of the pyramid: h
Volume = a2h/3
Slant height, s = sqrt(h2 + (a/2)2) This is the Pythagorean Theorem part.
Area of one pyramid side = s*a/2
Test Case #1 Height(h): 5.0’ Base(a): 2.5’
Write a program to calculate the surface area and volume of a square pyramid.
A square pyramid has a base that is square and all triangle faces are congruent isosceles triangles. (An isosceles triangle is a triangle in which two of the sides are equal.
Length of the base: a
Height of the pyramid: h
Volume = a2h/3
Slant height, s = sqrt(h2 + (a/2)2) This is the
Pythagorean Theorem part.
Area of one pyramid side = s*a/2
Here are my calculations:
Test Case #1 Height(h): 5.0’ Base(a): 2.5’
Volume = (2.5**2) * (5/3)
(6.25) * (1.66) = 10.375 cubic feet
Slant Height = math.sqrt(5**2) + (2.5/2)**2)
Sqrt(25+1.5625)
Sqrt(26.5625) = 5.154 feet
Pyramid (not including base) = (5.154) * (2.5/2) * 4
(5.154) * (1.25) * (4) = 25.769 sq. Ft.
I have attached a screenshot of my program I have so far. When I run the program, the output doesn't match what I have for the surface area and volume, am I missing something?

- Write a program to calculate the surface area and volume of a square pyramid. A square pyramid has a base that is square and all triangle faces are congruent isosceles triangles. (An isosceles triangle is a triangle in which two of the sides are equal. Length of the base: a Height of the pyramid: h Volume = a2h/3 Slant height, s = sqrt(h2 + (a/2)2) This is the Pythagorean Theorem part. Area of one pyramid side = s*a/2 For this program you are to determine two things about a square pyramid. 1) the surface area of the four sides. 2) the volume. Do not include surface area of the base. Test case 1: Height: 5.0' Base: 2.5' Test case 2: Height 2.5 Base: 4.3' The program asks the user to enter the pyramid height (in feet) and length of the base (in feet). Your program will need to determine surface area, and volume by using pythagorean theorem. Your output should neatly show the height, base, total surface area, and volume of the pyramid using 33 decimal place of…arrow_forwardWrite a c++ program to assign passengers seats in an airplane. Assume a small airplane with seat numbering as follows: 1 A B C D 2 A B C D 3 A B C D 4 A B C D 5 A B C D 6 A B C D 7 A B C D The program should display the seat pattern, with an 'X' marking the seats already assigned. For example, after seats 1A, 2B, and 4C are taken, the display should look like this: 1 X B C D 2 A X C D 3 A B C D 4 A B X D 5 A B C D 6 A B C D 7 A B C D After displaying the seats available, the program prompts for the seat desired, the user types in a seat, and then the display of available seats is updated. This continues until all seats are filled or until the user signals that the program should end. If the user types in a seat that is already assigned, the program should say that that seat is occupied and ask…arrow_forwardWrite a program that simulates picking a card from a deck of 52 cards.

For example, (2, 2) is inside the rectangle and (6, 4) is outside the rectangle, as shown in the Figure. (Hint: A point is in the rectangle if its horizontal distance to (0, 0) is less than or equal to 10 / 2 and its vertical distance to (0, 0) is less than or equal to 5 / 2.) Here are sample runs of the program: Sample 1: Enter a point with two coordinates: 2 2 Point (2.0, 2.0) is in the rectangle Sample 2: Enter a point with two coordinates: 6 4 Point (6.0, 4.0) is not in the rectangle Analysis: (Describe the problem including input and output in your own words.)

- A very known application in natural language processing is to extract information from a given text. In this lab, you will be able to extract some emotions (Sad and Happy) from a given string and calculate the score of each emotion. You will be given below the words that express sadness, anger, and happiness. For each word, you will be given weight as well, so that when you are calculating for example the score for sadness in the text (string), you can use this formula:arrow_forward1. Write a pyrhon program that prints out a classic hangman stick figure. The program should ask the user to enter a number from 1-6 and the corresponding hangman should be printed. The value the user inputs corresponds to the number of incorrect guesses in a real hangman game and so the completeness of the hangman will correspond to the number of ‘incorrect guesses’ inputted by the user (e.g., if the user enters 1, then only the head of the hangman will be printed; full example below). Example:Enter a number from 1-6: 1O Enter a number from 1-6: 2O|Enter a number from 1-6: 3O\||Enter a number from 1-6: 4O\|/|Enter a number from 1-6: 5O\|/|/Enter a number from 1-6: 6O\|/|/ \ 2. Modify your program from problem 1 so that the user input is checked to be a validsingle digit (1-6) before printing the corresponding hangman. If the input is not valid, theninstead of a hangman the following message should be printed “Invalid input: you must enter asingle number from 1-6.” Example:Enter a…arrow_forwardA right triangle can have sides that are all integers. The set of three integer values for the sides of a right triangle is called a Pythagorean triple. These three sides must satisfy the relationship that the sum of the squares of two of the sides is equal to the square of the hypotenuse. Write a program to find all Pythagorean triples for side1, side2, and the hypotenuse all no larger than 30. Use a triple-nested for loop that simply tries all possibilities.
