3.5.8 Rectangle, Part 3 CodeHS Answers

The most common answer is:

length = int(input(“What is the length?:”))
width = int(input(“What is the width?:”))
area_rectangle = length * width
perimeter_rectangle = 2 * (length + width)
print(“Area: ” + str(area_rectangle) + ” “)
print(“Perimeter: ” + str(perimeter_rectangle) + ” “)

To correct your code and ensure it uses standard ASCII quotation marks, here’s the revised version:

length = int(input("What is the length?: "))
width = int(input("What is the width?: "))
area_rectangle = length * width
perimeter_rectangle = 2 * (length + width)
print("Area: " + str(area_rectangle) + " ")
print("Perimeter: " + str(perimeter_rectangle) + " ")

This code will:

1. Prompt the user to input the length and width of a rectangle.
2. Calculate the area as length * width.
3. Calculate the perimeter as 2 * (length + width).
4. Print both the area and the perimeter.
