Answer:

D. Change the def to def area (width, height = 12)

Explanation:

Required

Update the function to set height to 12 when height is not passed

To do this, we simply update the def function to:

def area (width, height = 12)

So:

In boxlarea = area (5,2), the area will be calculated as:

[tex]area = 5 * 2 = 10[/tex]

In box2area = area (6), where height is not passed, the area will be calculated as:

[tex]area = 6 * 12 = 72[/tex]
