Question

3.17 (LAB) Ch 5 Warm up: Drawing a right triangle (Python 3) This program will output a right triangle based on user specified height triangle_height and symbol triangle_char. (1) The given program outputs a fixed-height triangle using a * character. Modify the given program to output a right triangle that instead uses the user-specified triangle_char character. (1 pt) (2) Modify the program to use a loop to output a right triangle of height triangle_height. The first line will have one user-specified character, such as % or *. Each subsequent line will have one additional user-specified character until the number in the triangle's base reaches triangle_height. Output a space after each user-specified character, including a line's last user-specified character. (2 pts) Example output for triangle_char = % and triangle_height = 5: Enter a character: % Enter triangle height: 5 % % % % % % % % % % % % % % %

Answer 1

Answer:

Find answers below

Explanation:

triangle_char = input('Enter a character: ')

triangle_height = int(input('Enter triangle height: '))

print('')

for j in range (triangle_height):

   print((triangle_char) * (j + 1))

#below are sample output that can be gotten with predefined values

$ ./triangles.py  

Enter characters: jk

Enter height: 8
