Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 13PP
You would like to know how fast you can run in miles per hour. Your treadmill will tell you your speed in terms of a pace (minutes and seconds per mile, such as "5:30 mile") or in terms of kilometers per hour (kph).
Write an overloaded function called convertToMPH. The first definition should take as input two integers that represent the pace in minutes and seconds per mile and return the speed in mph as a double. The second definition should take as input one double that represents the speed in kph and return the speed in mph as a double. One mile is approximately 1.61 kilometers. Write a driver

First write a function f to generate and return a random number between 0 to 100
In the main function, you keep calling function f until the returned value is less than 10
Then you should print out how many times the function f has been called.
Note that every time f will only return a single random number, and the declaration of f is as follows:
int f()
For instance, if f returns 23, 89, 10, 1, then your program should print 4 on the screen.
C++ language
Hint 1. You can implement the function using different methods, like the static variable
Hint 2. You can use the modular operator to shrink the generated random value, i.e., random() % 101 will guarantee the result is between 0 and 100.
Write a function that computes the area of a triangle given the length of itsthree sides as parameters (see Programming Exercise 9 from Chapter 3).Use your function to augment triangle2 . py from this chapter so that italso displays the area of the triangle.
Engineers usually measure angles in degrees, yet most computer programs and many calculators
require that the input to trigonometric functions be in radians.
i.
Write and test a function call DegToRadFunc that changes degrees to radians and
Write another function RadToDegFunc that changes radians to degrees.
Write another function called DegRadFunc that does the work of both DegToRadFunc
and RadToDegFunc.
Your functions should be able to accept both scalar an matrix input.

- Write a function that gets the area of a rectangle. The function must receive two parameters (decimal numbers) that represent the base and height of the rectangle and must return the calculated area (decimal number). Write a second function that obtains the volume of a rectangular prism with a rectangular base. The volume of such a prism is equal to the area of the base times the height of the figure. It uses calls to the previous function for this calculation. Volume=base*height*depth Call this last function in the main with user data.
