Question

Java Programming Language

The math to calculate the area for scalene, isoceles, and equlateral triangles are apparently wrong. Only the calculations for the right triange are correct.

I need the correct calculations for the area of the other triangles.

This is my program:

import java.util.Scanner;
public class TriangleClassifier
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner Keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
int side1, side2, side3;
boolean valid = true;
System.out.println("Welcome to the Triangle Classifier Program");
System.out.println("Enter the lengths of the three (3) triangle sides"
+ " in ascending order >>");
side1 = Keyboard.nextInt(); // I don't know why, but you must enter the values a second time
side2 = Keyboard.nextInt(); // for the program to start.
side3 = Keyboard.nextInt();
if (Keyboard.hasNextInt())
{
side1 = Keyboard.nextInt();
}
else
{
Keyboard.next();
valid = false;
}
if (!valid)
{
System.out.println("Error - At least one of your sides is not an integer");
return;
}
if (Keyboard.hasNextInt())
{
side2 = Keyboard.nextInt();
}
else
{
Keyboard.next();
valid = false;
}
if (!valid)
{
System.out.println("Error - At least one of your sides is not an integer");
return;
}
if (Keyboard.hasNextInt())
{
side3 = Keyboard.nextInt();
}
else
{
Keyboard.next();
valid = false;
}
if (!valid)
{
System.out.println("Error - At least one of your sides is not an integer");
return;
}
if ((side1 <= 0) || (side2 <= 0) || (side3 <= 0))
{
System.out.println("Error - At least one of your sides is an invalid integer value");
return;
}
if ((side2 < side1) || (side3< side2))
{
System.out.println("Error - Sides not in ascending order");
return;
}
if (side1 + side2 < side3)
{
System.out.println("Error - Sides cannot form a valid triangle");
return;
}
else
{
if (side1==side2 && side2==side3)
System.out.println("The triangle is an equilateral");
if ((side1==side2 && side2!=side3 && side1!=side3) || (side2==side3 && side2!=side1 && side3!=side1)
|| (side3==side1 && side3!=side2 && side1!=side2))
System.out.println("The triangle is an isosceles");
if (side1*side1 + side2*side2==side3*side3)
System.out.println("The triangle is a right triangle");
if (side1!=side2 && side1!=side3 && side2!=side3)
System.out.println("The triangle is a scalene");
}

double S = (side1+side2+side3)/2;

double area = Math.sqrt(S*(S-side1)*(S-side2)*(S-side3));
System.out.println("The area of this triangle is " + area);
}
}
