Gain insights into Java programming by exploring conditional statements, loops, math, logic, inheritance, generics, and arraylists, to become an intermediate Java developer.

Learn Java for free with this interactive course, and get a handle on one of the most popular programming languages in the world.

You'll start with a simple hello world program and proceed to cover common concepts such as Conditional Statements, Loop Statements, Math, and Logic in Java, before moving on to more advanced concepts like Inheritance, Generics, and ArrayLists, along with much more.

By the time you're done, you'll be an intermediate level Java developer, ready to take on your own projects.

# Problem statement

Basic maths is something we all learned in our early years. Areas of shapes, their perimeters and so on! Today, we want you to calculate the area of the **right-angled triangle** using a class.

# Coding exercise


Write a *class* having **two** `double` type variables for `length` and `height`, an **overloaded** *constructor* and **one** *member* function called `area` which will *return* the **area** of the right-angled **triangle**.

Only write the code where instructed in the snippet below.

Test your code against our cases and see if you can pass them.

The solution is given in case​ you get stuck and the next lesson will include a review of the solution, but it is highly recommended that you try it yourself first!

Good Luck!

In this challenge, you will implement a class for calculating the area of the right angled triangle.
