In this challenge, we practice using arithmetic operators. Check out the attached tutorial for resources.
Complete the following functions in the editor below:
- getArea(length, width): Calculate and return the area of a rectangle having sides length and width.
- getPerimeter(length, width): Calculate and return the perimeter of a rectangle having sides length and width.
The values returned by these functions are printed to stdout by locked stub code in the editor.
getArea
- Data Type Parameter Description Number length A number denoting the length of a rectangle. Number height A number denoting the height of a rectangle.
getPerimeter(length, height)
- Data Type Parameter Description Number length A number denoting the length of a rectangle. Number height A number denoting the height of a rectangle.
- 1 <= length,width <= 100
- length and height are scaled to at most three decimal places.
Function Return Type Description getArea Number The area of a rectangle having sides length and width. getPerimeter Number The perimeter of a rectangle having sides length and width.
3 4.5
13.5 15
The area of the rectangle is length X width = 3 X 4.5 = 13.5.
The perimeter of the rectangle is 2 X (length + height) = 2 X (3 + 4.5) = 15.
