Python - Methods and Behavior Definition

You want to create a method calculate_area that takes two parameters width and height and returns their product. Which code correctly implements this?

Adef calculate_area(width, height): return width * height

Bdef calculate_area(width, height): return width + height

Cdef calculate_area(width, height): print(width * height)

Ddef calculate_area(width, height): return width / height

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand the method goal
The method should return the product (multiplication) of width and height.
Step 2: Check each option's return value
def calculate_area(width, height): return width * height returns width * height, which is correct. Others return sum, print output, or division.
Final Answer:
def calculate_area(width, height):\n return width * height -> Option A
Quick Check:
Area = width x height [OK]

Quick Trick: Use * operator to multiply parameters for area [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Using + instead of * for multiplication
Printing instead of returning value
Dividing instead of multiplying
