Write an interactive program that computes the area of a square (area = side2) or triangle (area = 1/2 * base * height) after prompting the user to type the first character of the figure name (t or s). Make sure that your output matches the sample output exactly. Note that a square does not have a base and a height. It has only a side. Your variable names should reflect this.
Use double variables so that the user can enter a decimal if desired. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Hint: in order to round the numbers to the nearest tenth, #include <iomanip> at the top of your program and use something like
cout << fixed << setprecision(1) << "The area is......
This will cause your output to be rounded to 1 digit after the decimal.
In this program it will be best to NOT use any named constants.
Sample screen output 1:
Enter the type of figure (s or t): t
Enter the base: 7
Enter the height: 3
The area is 10.5
Sample screen output 2:
Enter the type of figure (s or t): s
Enter the length of a side: 9
The area is 81.0
