Question

The area of a right triangle is ½ the base times the height.

Input the base and height for two triangles. You can call
them Triangle A and Triangle B. Print the area for both
triangles. Print a message saying which triangle is large or
if they are equal area. You may use the nested ifs or the if
else and elif.

# We will use the array to store our triangles' cred.

triangles = [0,0,0,0]

#Get input from user.

triangles[0] = int(input("For Triangle A, enter the base: "))

triangles[1] = int(input("For Triangle A, enter the height: "))

triangles[2] = int(input("For Triangle A, enter the base: "))

triangles[3] = int(input("For Triangle B, enter the height: "))

#Print the areas.

print("Area of the Triangle A is: ",(triangles[0]*0.5*triangles[1]),"\\Area of the Triangle B is: ",(triangles[2]*0.5*triangles[3]))

#Find the largest or are these equal?

message = "These have the same area." if ((triangles[0]*0.5*triangles[1])==(triangles[2]*0.5*triangles[3])) else "Triangle B is larger than Triangle A." if ((triangles[0]*0.5*triangles[1]) < (triangles[2]*0.5*triangles[3])) else "Triangle A is larger than Triangle B."

print(message)
