I am stuck on a problem in which i have to print an isosceles triangle (two sides equal) with any character. It would be really helpful if someone could tell me the code, the triangle should look like this: * *** ***** ******* Re: Isosceles Triange 14 Years Ago by sfuo The solution is in the if() statement where it prints either a * or space. You should use the C++ headers if you are using C++ ( you were using iostream.h instead of iostream ). And you should practice formatting your code so it is easier to read because you have cout << "\n"; tabbed out by cout << " "; which kinda… Re: An Isosceles Triangle using nested loop 15 Years Ago by RaigaX9 [QUOTE=gangsta1903;1144480]sorry... now I see that you are complaining about spaces... your are incrementing the asteriks one by one in every line.. if you dont want spaces, then you should go with 1-3-5-7-9... asterisk on each line....[/QUOTE] Nevermind, I sort of did read the directions of the homework my professor has given us incorrectly… Re: An Isosceles Triangle using nested loop 15 Years Ago by gangsta1903 [QUOTE=ZetaX9;1144489]Nevermind, I sort of did read the directions of the homework my professor has given us incorrectly. It's suppose to have spaces separating them and I sort of miss reading that part lol. In my professor's website, he forgot to put spaces in that triangle he wanted us to do and I just assumed that he wanted to make it without … Re: An Isosceles Triangle using nested loop 15 Years Ago by RaigaX9 [QUOTE=gangsta1903;1144492]oh teachers... :)[/QUOTE] lol.

Re: Function to determine whether or not a triangle is Isosceles. 13 Years Ago by TrustyTony Ok, so you more far than OP, I do not think the mathematical validity was required for OP.

Re: Classes 14 Years Ago by jonsca Isosceles triangles have 2 equal sides, equilateral triangles have 3 equal sides. Therefore, what can be said about equilateral triangles? Determine whether or not there is a relationship between right angle triangles and either of the other two. Write out your thoughts and someone will be able to tell you if they are correct.
