Explanation of Solution

“is a” relationship:

In C#, if one object is a specialized type of another object, then there should be an “is a” relationship between those objects. This is used to create the “is a” relationship among several classes.

For example:

  • A truck is a vehicle.
  • A circle is a shape.

From the above example,

  • The first statement implies that the vehicle is a “base class” and truck is the “derived class”.
    • The “vehicle” is the parent of the “truck” in inheritance tree.
  • Similarly, second statement implies that the shape is a “base class” and “circle” is the “derived class”.
    • The “shape” is the parent of the “circle” in inheritance tree.
