C Program to Calculate Area, Perimeter and Diagonal of a Rectangle

C program to calculate area, perimeter and diagonal of a rectangle has been given below. Suppose, length and breadth of a rectangle are l unit, and b unit respectively. Then area, perimeter and diagonal of that rectangle would be l * b unit^2, 2 * (l + b) unit and sqrt(l^2 + b^2) unit, respectively.

For example, if length is 7 cm and breadth is 3 cm, then area of the rectangle would be 7 * 3 = 21 cm^2 while perimeter and diagonal would be 2 * (7 + 3) = 20 cm and sqrt(7^2 + 3^2) = sqrt(58) = 7.616 cm.

The algorithm, pseudocode, and time-complexity of the program have also been covered below.

1. Algorithm to calculate area, perimeter and diagonal of a rectangle

1. Take the length l and the breadth b of a rectangle as inputs.

2. Compute a = l * b

3. Compute p = 2 * (l + b)

4. Compute d = sqrt(l^2 + b^2)

5. Declare the a as the area, p as the perimeter and d as the diagonal of that rectangle.
