// C++ program to find the area of a triangle if base and height are given
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    float b, h, a;
    
    // b = base
    // h = height
    // a = area

    cout << "Enter the base & height of the triangle::\n";
    cin >> b >> h;

    // Calculate area of the triangle
    a = (float)((b * h) / 2);

    // Output
    cout << "\nArea of the triangle = " << a << " sq. units";

    return 0;
