public double Area => SideLength * SideLength;
public Square(double sideLength) : base(4) => SideLength = sideLength;
public void Scale(double factor) => SideLength *= factor;
}
}
namespace Treehouse.CodeChallenges { class Polygon { public int NumSides { get; private set; }
public Polygon(int numSides)
{
NumSides = numSides;
}
}
}

You might need to start the challenge over to get it back. But since you've already passed task 1, it shouldn't be too hard. The changes you need to make are very similar to the ones you made to convert the Area property into a single line in the previous task.

The challenge does not ask you to change the Square constructor.
