Math Problem Statement

Ask the user for the width of a rectangle and a height of a rectangle. These numbers should be doubles. Ask the user to input a width with this prompt:

What is the width of the rectangle?

Then, ask the user to input a height with this prompt:

What is the height of the rectangle?

Finally, your program should print out the area of the rectangle in this form:

The area of the rectangle is __ units squared.

Where the underscores are your rectangle’s area.

The area of a rectangle can be calculated by multiplying the width by the height.

For example, if your program was given the 10.0 for the width and 3.0 for the height, the output would looks as follows:

What is the width of the rectangle? 10.0 What is the height of the rectangle? 3.0 The area of the rectangle is 30.0 units squared.
