Area Class
Write a class that has three overloaded static methods for calculating the areas of the following geometric shapes:
- circles
- rectangles
- cylinders
Here are the formulas for calculating the area of the shapes.
| Area of a circle: | Area = πr2 |
| Where | π is Math.PI and r is the circle’s radius |
| Area of a rectangle: | Area = Width × Length |
| Area of a cylinder: | Area = πr2h |
| Where | π is Math.PI, r is the radius of the cylinder’s base, and h is the cylinder’s height |
Because the three methods are to be overloaded, they should each have the same name, but different parameter lists. Demonstrate the class in a complete

Shape Classes
Design classes Square, RightTriangle , and Triangle that encapsulate three geometric shapes. Each class should
implement a method
void draw (int x, int y)
that “draws" a square, a right triangle, or an equilateral triangle (a triangle with three equal sides), respectively.
See Figure 2. The parameters x and y specify the relative position of the figure: y lines down and x spaces acro
from the current position of the screen cursor. The instance variables of each class are:
int rows , the number of rows that comprise the figure,
and
char character , the keyboard character used for drawing the figure.
Each shape of Figure 2 consists of five rows. The drawing characters are *** for the square, %' for the right
triangle, and #' for the equilateral triangle.

Rainfall Type
Create a RainFall class that keeps the total rainfall in an array of doubles for each of the 12 months.
Methods in the programme should return the following values:
• the total annual rainfall; • the average monthly rainfall
• the wettest month of the year
• the month with the least amount of rain
Demonstrate the class in its entirety.
Validation of Input:
Accepting negative amounts for monthly rainfall data is not permitted.
True or FalseThe same rules for naming variables apply to naming classes.

- Rolling Dice Simulator [Java Assignment]Objective: Create a Java program that rolls two dice and displays the results. The program should have two Java classes: one for a single die and another for a pair of dice. Assignment Details: User Input: Ask the user to specify the number of sides they want on each die. Ensure that the user's input is within a reasonable range. Dice Rolling: Simulate rolling the dice using Math.random() based on the user's chosen number of sides. Display the sum of the values rolled, e.g., "5 + 3 = 8." Special Combinations: If the dice roll results in combinations of 2, 7, or 12, print special messages: "1 + 1 = 2 snake eyes!" "3 + 4 = 7 craps!" "6 + 6 = 12 box cars!" Main Method: In the main method, create a pair of dice, roll them, and display the results. Allow the user to decide whether to continue rolling the dice or exit the program.

The method should determine whether the number is valid by comparing it to the following list of valid charge account numbers:5658845 4520125 7895122 8777541 8451277 13028508080152 4562555 5552012 5050552 7825877 12502551005231 6545231 3852085 7576651 7881200 4581002These numbers should be stored in an array. Use a sequential search to locate the number passed as an argument. If the number is in the array, the method should return true, indicating the number is valid. If the number is not in the array, the method should return false, indicating the number is invalid.Write a program that tests the class by asking the user to enter a charge account number. The program should display a message indicating whether the number is valid or invalid.arrow_forward
