Stuck with compilation error with initializer list and this pointer

I have very simple code here with a Rectangle and Circle class inheriting from Shape class, and output their area and perimeter. I can’t figure out why it does not compile. The error message says

error: expected identifier before ‘this’
Rectangle(float width, float height): this->width(width), this->height(height){}
error expected ‘{‘ before ‘this

So sth is not correct with my constructor initializer list. Before anyone suggests removal of the "this" pointer, I want to point out I’m aware the this pointer is not mandatory because the initializer can disambiguate. Removing the this pointer compilation goes fine, but I want to keep the this pointer and would like to know exactly what is the problem here.

#include <assert.h>
#include <cmath>

#define PI 3.14159

class Shape{
public:
    virtual float Area() const = 0;
    virtual float Perimeter() const = 0;
};

class Rectangle: public Shape{
public:
    Rectangle(float width, float height): this->width(width), this->height(height){}
    float Area() const{return width*height;}
    float Perimeter() const{return 2*(width+height);}
private:
    float width{0};
    float height{0};
};

class Circle: public Shape{
public:
    Circle(float radius): this->radius(radius){}
    float Area() const{return PI*radius*radius;}
    float Perimeter() const{return 2.0*PI*radius;}
private:
    float radius{0};
};

// Test in main()
int main() {
  double epsilon = 0.1; // useful for floating point equality

  // Test circle
  Circle circle(12.31);
  assert(abs(circle.Perimeter() - 77.35) < epsilon);
  assert(abs(circle.Area() - 476.06) < epsilon);

  // Test rectangle
  Rectangle rectangle(10, 6);
  assert(rectangle.Perimeter() == 32);
  assert(rectangle.Area() == 60);
}

You’re misunderstanding the options here. It’s mandatory not to have it there. An initializer names the member you initialize. this->width isn’t a name, but an expression.

Correct:
Rectangle(float width, float height): width(width), height(height){}
