PROGRAM 10: Angle Conversion
Believed to have originated in France, a gradian is a unit of measure of an angle that is equivalent to 1/400th of a turn or 9/10th of a degree. The formula for this conversion solving for Gradian is:
Gradian = 400 * turn or Gradian = 1.111 * degree
Prompt the user for a value and displays the Gradian value you calculate, if the original value was a degree or a turn. A sample program dialogue is shown below.
What’s your number: 10.0
Assuming you entered a turn amount, here’s your Gradian: 4000.000
Assuming you entered a degree amount, here’s your Gradian: 11.110
What’s your number: 15.12
Assuming you entered a turn amount, here’s your Gradian: 6048.000
Assuming you entered a degree amount, here’s your Gradian: 16.798
PROGRAM 11: Quadratic Equation
Write an HLA Assembly language program that factors an equation of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0 by using the quadratic equation. The formula you need to calculate is shown below:.

Your program should prompt for the values a, b and c, each which are to be real32 values. A sample program dialogue is shown below.
(Note: Please assume that b2 – 4 a c (what is referred to as the “discriminant”) will always be positive so that you do not need to worry about any imaginary roots.)
Gimme a value for a: 1
Gimme a value for b: 3
Gimme a value for c: -4
The solutions are x = -4.000 and x = 1.000
Gimme a value for a: 2
Gimme a value for b: -4
Gimme a value for c: -3
The solutions are x = -0.580 and x = 2.580
