Programming Language C++ Task 1: Write a program to calculate the volume of various containers. A base class, Cylinder, will be created, with its derived classes, also called child classes or sub-classes. First, create a parent class, Cylinder. Create a constant for pi since you will need this for any non-square containers. Use protected for the members. Finally, create a public function that sets the volume. // The formula is: V = pi * (r^2) * h Task 2: Create a derived, or child class for Cylinder, that is, a Cone class. The same function, with the same parameters, is used. However, the formula is different for a cone. // The formula is: V = (1/3) * pi * (r^2) * h Task 3: Test your classes in the main function by creating an instance of Cone and an instance of Cylinder. In each case, call the set_volume function, passing the same parameters. Task 4: Create a derived class for Cone called PartialCone. Add a second radius variable with scope specific to this class (because the top and bottom radii of a partial cone are different). Redefine the set_volume function. The formula for the volume of a partial/truncated cone is: V = h * (PI / 3) * (R2 + (R * r) + r2 ) V = volume R = base radius r = top surface radius Task 5: What happens if you change the access modifiers for Cylinder's variables to private? Consider that you declare a private variable in the Cone class. Can you reference it in Cy

Task 3: Test your classes in the main function by creating an instance of Cone and an instance of Cylinder. In each case, call the set_volume function, passing the same parameters.
Task 4: Create a derived class for Cone called PartialCone. Add a second radius variable with scope specific to this class (because the top and bottom radii of a partial cone are different). Redefine the set_volume function.
The formula for the volume of a partial/truncated cone is:
- V = h * (PI / 3) * (R2 + (R * r) + r2 )
- V = volume
- R = base radius
- r = top surface radius
Task 5:
- What happens if you change the access modifiers for Cylinder's variables to private?
- Consider that you declare a private variable in the Cone class. Can you reference it in Cylinder?
