Write Aprogramthat Asks The User For An Angle Entered In Radians The

Write a program that asks the user for an angle, entered in radians. The program should then display the sine, cosine, and tangent of the angle. (Use the sin, cos, and tan library functions to determine these values .) All numeric values in the output should be displayed in fixed-point notation, rounded to four decimal places of precision. Here is one sample run: Enter angle: 1.07078 sin(1.07078)=0.8776 cos(1.07078)=0.4794 tan(1.07078)=1.8304 I got this so far #include #include #include using namespace std; int main () { double radians; cout > radians; cout

The core task is to create a C++ program that prompts the user for an angle measured in radians and then calculates and displays the sine, cosine, and tangent of that angle. The outputs must be formatted with four decimal places using fixed-point notation. Your initial code snippet correctly includes the necessary headers, such as for mathematical functions and for output formatting. However, it contains some inaccuracies, primarily in the labeling of the output lines, which currently display a hardcoded value of Pi (3.1415) rather than the input angle.

In refining this program, the primary focus should be on ensuring that the output accurately reflects the input angle and its corresponding trigonometric values. To do this, the code should dynamically display the user's entered angle within the output labels, rather than a static value. For example, instead of printing "sin(3.1415)=0.0000", it should output "sin(1.07078)=0.8776" when the user enters 1.07078.

Additionally, the program should handle user input robustly, prompting again or handling invalid input if necessary. Although not specified, good practice suggests including input validation and clear prompts.

Here is the cleaned and improved version of the program:

Improved C++ Program for Calculating Sine, Cosine, and Tangent of an Input Angle in Radians

include <iostream>


include <iomanip>


include <cmath>


using namespace std;


int main() {


double radians;


// Prompt user for input


cout << "Enter angle in radians: ";


cin >> radians;


// Calculate trigonometric functions


double sine = sin(radians);


double cosine = cos(radians);


double tangent = tan(radians);


// Display results with four decimal places


cout << fixed << setprecision(4);


cout << "sin(" << radians << ")=" << sine << endl;


cout << "cos(" << radians << ")=" << cosine << endl;


cout << "tan(" << radians << ")=" << tangent << endl;


// Wait for user input to close


cin.ignore();


cin.get();


return 0;


}

This version correctly prompts the user for an angle in radians, calculates the sine, cosine, and tangent of that angle, and displays the results with four decimal places. Each output line dynamically reflects the input value, leading to more accurate and clear output. The code adheres to good programming practices for readability and functionality.
