C Program to Find Volume and Surface Area of Cuboid

This is a C Program to find the volume and surface area of cuboids.

This C Program calculates the volume and surface area of cuboids.

The formula used in this program are surfacerea= 2(w * l + l * h + h * w) where w is width, l is length and h is a height of the cuboids. volume = width * length * height.

Here is source code of the C Program to Find the volume and surface area of cuboids.The C program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
 
int main()
{
    float width, length, height;
    float surfacearea, volume, space_diagonal;
 
    printf("Enter value of width, length & height of the cuboids:\n");
    scanf("%f%f%f", &width, &length, &height);
    surfacearea = 2 *(width * length + length * height +
    height * width);
    volume = width * length * height;
    space_diagonal = sqrt(width * width + length * length +
    height * height);
    printf("Surface area of cuboids is: %.3f", surfacearea);
    printf("\n Volume of cuboids is : %.3f", volume);
    printf("\n Space diagonal of cuboids is : %.3f", space_diagonal);
    return 0;
}

In this C program, library function defined in <math.h> header file is used to compute mathematical functions. We are reading the ‘width’, ‘length’ and ‘height’ values of cuboids. To find the surface area and the volume, the following formulas are used.

Surface area= 2(width * length + length * height + height * width)

Volume = width * length * height

Diagonal =sqrt(width * width + length * length + height * height).

 
Output:
$ cc pgm28.c -lm
$ a.out
Enter value of width, length & height of the cuboids :
 22 23 24
Surface area of cuboids is: 3172.000
Volume of cuboids is : 12144.000
Space diagonal of cuboids is : 39.862
