Challenge: Find the Area of a Triangle

• Problem Statement The task is to call the root function my_area that calculates the area of a triangle.

area of a traingle = 1/2∗base∗height

• A method triangle_area() is defined within the module shapes.
• The task is to complete the method
  • Implement root function.
  • Call the root function my_area from within the public function triangle_area().
  • Print the return value from the root function, i.e., area of the triangle

Input

   x and y   

Note: Assume that base and height are passed to the function my_public_function

Output

The area of a triangle

 float value

Sample Input

   x = 3, y = 4

Sample Output

   6

Coding Exercise

mod shapes{
  pub fn triangle_area(base : i32, height : i32) {
      // call the root function 'my_area' and print the return value
  }
}

Good luck!🤞
