Write a program that prompts the user to entern three points (x1,y1),(x2,y2), (x3,y3) of a triangle and displays its area. The formula for computing the area of a triangle is s = (side1 + side2 + side3)/2; area = Math.sqrt(s (s - side1) (s - side2) (s - side3));
input style :
Enter three points for a triangle,there is a space among the values. i.e : 1.5 -3.4 4.6 5 9.5 -3.4
output style:
Output the area. Keep the two decimal places. i.e : The area of the triangle is 33.60.
input sample:
1.5 -3.4 4.6 5 9.5 -3.4
output sample:
The area of the triangle is 33.60.
