Exercise 5
Write the algorithm that converts degrees to radians, such that:
The radian R of a degree D equals: R = D x π/180 radians.
- Draw the corresponding flowchart
- Write the corresponding python program
Exercise 6
Write an algorithm that asks for the coordinates of two points in the Cartesian plane, calculates, and
displays the distance between these two points.
Note: The distance AB between two points A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2) is: AB = √((x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²)
- Write the corresponding python program
Exercise 7
Write the algorithm that calculates the area of a cylinder
Note : TSA of cylinder = 2πr2 + 2πrh
with r: The radius of cylinder and h: The height of the cylinder
Exercise 8
Write an algorithm that reads the time T in seconds and displays the time T in days, hours, minutes, and
seconds.
Example: If T = 21020 seconds, the algorithm will display 0 days, 5 hours, 50 minutes, and 20 seconds.
- Draw the corresponding flowchart
- Write the corresponding python program
Conditional structure (reduced form)
Exercise 1:
Write the algorithm that displays "Positive Number" when the user inputs a strictly positive integer.
Exercice 2 :
Write an algorithm that asks the user for a number between 10 and 20, then displays an "OK" message if
the number is between 10 and 20.
- Draw the corresponding flowchart
- Write the corresponding python program
Exercise 3:
Write an algorithm that calculates the square root of a positive number.
- Draw the corresponding flowchart
- Write the corresponding python program
Exercise 4:
Write a program that checks the parity of a given integer (using the simplified reduced form).
- Draw the corresponding flowchart
- Write the corresponding python program
Exercise 5:
Write an algorithm that calculates and displays the area of a triangle, knowing that the area of a triangle =
(base * height) / 2.
Note: The base and height must be positive; otherwise, display an error message.
