JavaScript: Volume of a Pentagonal Prism
JavaScript Math: Exercise-62 with Solution
Write a JavaScript program to calculate the volume of a prism using only its height and one of its hexagonal sides.
In geometry, the pentagonal prism is a prism with a pentagonal base. It is a type of heptahedron with seven faces, fifteen edges, and ten vertices.

JavaScript Code:
const volume_Pentagonal_Prism = (base_edge, height) => {
is_Number(base_edge, 'Base Edge')
is_Number(height, 'Height')
return (1/4*height*base_edge*base_edge*Math.sqrt(5*(5+2*(Math.sqrt(5)))))
}
const is_Number = (n, n_name = 'number') => {
if (typeof n !== 'number') {
throw new TypeError('The ' + n_name + ' is not Number type!')
}
else if (n < 0 || (!Number.isFinite(n)))
{
throw new Error('The ' + n_name + ' must be a positive values!')
}
}
console.log(volume_Pentagonal_Prism(4.0, 8.0))
console.log(volume_Pentagonal_Prism('4.0', 8.0))
console.log(volume_Pentagonal_Prism(4.0, -8.0))
