power is the product of voltage and current.so we can
measure the value of power just by using ammeter and
voltmeter.......then why do we use a wattmeter?

Yes as all have already said you dont need to use a watt meter
only if the circuit uses a Direct Current voltage and you can
calculate the power mentally by just looking at the voltmeter and ammeter.
