question 2

Multiple Choice

Consider the getArea method from the textbook shown below.
Public int getArea()
{
If (width <= 0) { return 0; } // line #1
Else if (width == 1) { return 1; } // line #2
Else
{
Triangle smallerTriangle = new Triangle(width - 1) ; // line #3
Int smallerArea = smallerTriangle.getArea() ; // line #4
Return smallerArea + width; // line #5
}
}
Assume line #1 is replaced with this line:
If (width <= 0) {return width;}
What will be the result?

• A) The method will still return correct results for all non-negative width triangles.
• B) The method will return incorrect results for triangles with width equal to 0.
• C) The method will return incorrect results for triangles with width equal to 1.
• D) The method will return area to be one too high for all triangles.
