- I am writing a program that calculates the are of a triangle using the following formula: Area = (a2/2) * [sin α1 * sin αmgle2)/sin(αngle1 + αngle2). I am having issues with the angles because the angles need to always be greater than 0 and the sum of the 2 angles need to always be less than 180. Also, the area can't be a negative number. I almost got it down, but of course with an if statement nothing will print in the terminal if the conditions aren't meet. I've tried with a while loop, but was unsuccessful with that. What can I do so that this condition if(my_rank != 0 && alpha1 >= 1 && alpha2 >= 1 && alpha1 + alpha2 < 180) is always met? int a;int b;float c;bool m = false;alpha1 = rand()%180;alpha2 = rand()%180;baseA= (((float)rand()/(float)(RAND_MAX)) * 11 + 10) + ((float)rand()/(float)(RAND_MAX)); if(my_rank != 0 && alpha1 >= 1 && alpha2 >= 1 && alpha1 + alpha2 < 180){m = true;MPI_Send(&alpha1, 1, MPI_FLOAT, 0,…arrow_forward..5-- I have a python programing question In 1937, a German mathematician named Lothar Collatz formulated an intriguing hypothesis (it still remains unproven) which can be described in the following way: 1. take any non-negative and non-zero integer number and name it c0; 2. if it's even, evaluate a new c0 as c0 ÷ 2; 3. otherwise, if it's odd, evaluate a new c0 as 3 × c0 + 1; 4. if c0 ≠ 1, skip to point 2. The hypothesis says that regardless of the initial value of c0, it will always go to 1. Of course, it's an extremely complex task to use a computer in order to prove the hypothesis for any natural number (it may even need artificial intelligence), but you can use Python to check some individual numbers. Maybe you'll even find the one which would disprove the hypothesis. Write a program which reads one natural number and executes the above steps as long as c0remains different from 1(c0 != 1). Moreover, we'll add another task - we want you to count the steps needed to achieve the goal.…arrow_forwardHello, I am having trouble with a coding problem I am working on.

Amanda and Tyler opened a business that specializes in shipping liquids, such as milk, juice, and water, in cylindrical containers. The shipping charges depend on the amount of the liquid in the container. (For simplicity, you may assume that the container is filled to the top.) They also provide the option to paint the outside of the container for a reasonable amount. Write a program that does the following: Prompts the user to input the dimensions (in feet) of the container (radius of the base and the height). Prompts the user to input the shipping cost per liter. Prompts the user to input the paint cost per square foot. (Assume that the entire container including the top and bottom needs to be painted.) Separately outputs the shipping cost and the cost of painting. Your program must use the class cylinderType (designed in Programming Exercise 3) to store the radius of the base and the height of the container.
