Q37. Define a class as follows:
Class name : Mobile
Data members : compname – to store company name
type- to store ‘B’ for basic phone, ‘S’ for smart phone
price – to store the price
discount- to store the discount amount
Methods : 1. Void readInfo() – to company name, mobile type and price.
2. void calc( ) – to modify the price as price = price – discount where discount is 10%
of price if price is less than Rs.5000, 20% if price is Rs. 5000/- or above but
less than Rs. 10000/- and 30% if price is Rs. 10,000/- or above
3. void display( ) – To print all the details as company name, type, price discount.

Q38. Design a class to overload a function area() as follows:
(i) double area(double a, double b, double c) with three double arguments, returns the area of a scalene triangle
using the formula :
area = 𝑠(𝑠 − 𝑎)(𝑠 − 𝑏)(𝑠 − 𝑐)
Where s = 𝑎+𝑏+𝑐
2
(ii) double area(int a, int b, int height) with three integer arguments, returns the area of a trapezium using the
formula: area = 12 height(a+b)
(iii) double area(double diagonal1, double diagonal2) with two double arguments, returns the area of a rhombus
using the formula: area = 12 (diagonal1 x diagonal2)
