Question

Define a function calc_pyramid_volume() with parameters base_length, base_width, and pyramid_height, that returns the volume of a pyramid with a rectangular base. calc_pyramid_volume() calls the given calc_base_area() function in the calculation. Relevant geometry equations: Volume = base area x height x 1/3 (Watch out for integer division). Sample output with inputs: 4.5 2.1 3.0 Volume for 4.5, 2.1, 3.0 is: 9.45.

[su_box title="♦ Relevant knowledge" box_color="#2d6ff7" radius="1"]Calculate Base Area is considered as a functions and when you try to multiply the function object by the pyramid height however, it will not work. You should make use of the calculator_base_area using the appropriate arguments, and then multiply the results of the function.

def calc_pyramid_volume(base_length, base_width, pyramid_height): # calculating base area base_area = base_length*base_width # calculating volume volume = base_area*pyramid_height/3 # returning volume return volume ########################## # Testing length = float(input()) width = float(input()) height = float(input()) print('Volume for '+str(length)+", "+str(width)+", "+str(height)+" is: %.2f"%calc_pyramid_volume(length,width,height)) Output
