Distance of two points and area of two circles.

I'm a little lost on my program. Everything works fine except function 3. It gives out garbage numbers. Its suppose to give the distance between two points and then the area of 2 circles.

Hi,

1.You haven't assigned any value to float variable 'dd' in int main().

2.The function, area.radius() accepts void and returns float. Parantheses missing. Also, assign another float variable, say, area to area.radius(). Print area.
