The test suite needs to accept some tolerance, unless the author desires that a specific method is implemented, which should mentioned. For instance, while trying to approximate the solution, I was able to reach only 8 decimal places within Cody's time restrictions.
In addition to RSTV's comment, I recommend adding some tests and replacing the formula for the correct answer with the numerical values. As it stands, the test suite gives the formula away.
