Question 14

Write a function called calculate_area() that takes base and height as an input argument and returns an area of a triangle as an output. The formula used is:

Area of a Triangle = ½*base*height

Solution
def calculate_area(base, height):
    area = (1/2) * base * height
    return area

base_value = int(input("Enter the base value: "))
height_value = int(input("Enter the height value: "))
triangle_area = calculate_area(base_value, height_value)
print("Area of the triangle:", triangle_area)
Output
Enter the base value: 10
Enter the height value: 5
Area of the triangle: 25.0
