Given class triangle (in files triangle.h and triangle.cpp), complete main() to read and set the base and height of triangle1 an

d of triangle2, determine which triangle's area is larger, and output that triangle's info, making use of triangle's relevant member functions.
ex: if the input is:
3.0 4.0
4.0 5.0
where 3.0 is triangle1's base, 4.0 is triangle1's height, 4.0 is triangle2's base, and 5.0 is triangle2's height, the output is:
triangle with larger area:
base: 4.00
height: 5.00
area: 10.00
given (in main.cpp):
#include
#include "triangle.h"
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, const char* argv[]) {
triangle triangle1;
triangle triangle2;
// todo: read and set base and height for triangle1 (use setbase() and setheight())
// todo: read and set base and height for triangle2 (use setbase() and setheight())
// todo: determine larger triangle (use getarea())
cout << "triangle with larger area:" << endl;
// todo: output larger triangle's info (use printinfo())
return 0;
}

The C++ program that would complete the main () and set the base and height of triangle1 and of triangle2 is:

main.cpp

#include <iostream>

#include "Triangle.h"

using namespace std;

int main()

{

Triangle Tri1;

Triangle Tri2;

double base1, height1, base2, height2;

cout << "Enter a base for your Triangle1: ";

cin >> base1;

cout << "Enter a height for your Triangle1: ";

cin >> height1;

cout << endl;

cout << "Enter a base for your Triangle2: ";

cin >> base2;

cout << "Enter a height for your Triangle2: ";

cin >> height2;

cout << endl;

cout << "################################" << endl;

cout << "Triangle with larger area:" << endl;

if ((0.5)*base1*height1 > (0.5)*base2*height2){

Tri1.setValues(base1, height1);

Tri1.getValues();

cout << "Area: " << Tri1.getArea() << endl << endl;

}

else{

Tri2.setValues(base2, height2);

Tri2.getValues();

cout << "Area: " << Tri2.getArea() << endl;

}

return 0;

}
