Problem #20
Solution Source Code
Code Overview
1. Header Files and Namespace:
<iostream>is included for input and output operations.<string>is included for potential future use (not used in this program).<cmath>is included to usepow()for exponentiation (A²).using namespace std;allows the use of standard functions without prefixing them withstd::.
2. User Input Function (ReadSquareSide)
- Prompts the user to enter the side length (A) of a square.
- Reads and returns the side length.
3. Area Calculation Function (CircleAreaInscribedInSquare)
- Takes the side length (A) as input.
- Uses the formula for the area of an inscribed circle in a square:
- This is implemented as:
float Area = (PI * pow(A, 2)) / 4;
pow(A, 2)calculatesA².PIis defined as3.141592653589793238for precise calculations.- The division by
4ensures correct computation of the inscribed circle's area.
- Returns the computed area.
4. Output Function (PrintResult)
- Receives the computed area as a parameter.
- Prints
"Circle Area = [Area]".
5. Program Execution (main())
- Calls
ReadSquareSide()to get user input. - Calls
CircleAreaInscribedInSquare()to compute the inscribed circle's area. - Calls
PrintResult()to display the result. - Returns
0to indicate successful execution.
This structured explanation ensures clarity and ease of understanding.
