Write a program to find the Surface Area of the Pentagonal Prism

Before writing the program of calculating the area of a pentagonal prism in different programming languages, firstly we have to know about the pentagonal prism and its area's formula.

What is Pentagonal Prism?

Pentagonal Prism is a 3-D shape, which has 7 faces, 10 vertices, and 15 edges. A pentagonal prism can have pentagonal bases which give five sides. A pentagonal prism is also known as five-sided polygon prism.

Area of Pentagonal Prism

Surface area of Pentagonal Prism = 5 * a * b + 5 * b * h
Where, b is the base length, a is length and h is the height of the pentagonal prism. 

Program of calculating the area of a pentagonal prism in different Programming languages

Program 1: Write a Program in C language:

// This program which uses a function to find the area of a pentagonal prism .
#include <stdio.h>
float find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism(float a, float h, float b) // It is a function to find area 
{ 
float area_of_Pentagonal_prism ;
area_of_Pentagonal_prism =  (5 * a * b) + (5 * b * h); // It is a formula for calculating the area of pentagonal prism  
return (area_of_Pentagonal_prism ); 
} 
float main() 
{ 
float a = 4.55, h = 9.10, b = 1.5 ;
printf("Surface area of the pentagonal prism  is: %f", find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism(a, h, b));   
return 0; 
}

Output of Above C program:

Surface area of the pentagonal prism  is: 102.375000

Program 2: Write a Program in Java language:

// This is a Java program which finds the area of a pentagonal prism .
class findarea { 
static float find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism( float a, float h, float b) 
{  
float area_of_Pentagonal_prism ;
area_of_Pentagonal_prism = (5 * a * b) + (5 * b * h); // It is a formula for calculating the area of pentagonal prism  
return(area_of_Pentagonal_prism); 
} 
// Driver method 
public static void main(String[] args) 
{ 
float a = 20;
float h = 10, b = 2;
System.out.println("The surface area of a pentagonal prism  is:");
System.out.println(find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism(a, h, b)); 
} 
}

Output of Above Java program:

The surface area of a pentagonal prism  is:
300.0

Program 3: Write a Program in PHP programming language.

<?php 
// This is a PHP program which finds the area of a pentagonal prism.  
// Function to find area 
function find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism($a, $h, $b) 
{   
$area_of_Pentagonal_prism = (5 * $a * $b) + (5 * $b * $h); // It is an statement which uses a forumla to find the surface area and store the value in the area_of_pentagonal prism variable. 
return ($area_of_Pentagonal_prism); 
} 
$a = 4; 
$b = 6; 
$h = 8;  
echo find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism($a, $h, $b); 
?>

Output of Above PHP program:

Program 4: Write a Program in Python programming language.

# This is a python program which finds the area of a pentagonal prism . 
def find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism(a, h, b):
    return ( (5 * a * b) + (5 * b * h) ) # It is a formula which finds the value of area.
# main code begins 
a = 9 
h = 2 
b = 15
print(find_area_of_Pentagonal_prism(a, h, b) )

Output of Above Python program:
