Java tabbed pane not showing programs

I'm fairly inexperienced with Java and have searched around quite a bit to resolve this issue. I believe I have the code correct but my tabs are not showing anything. I came across something about changing the layout to BorderLayout but it didn't work for me. When I run the program I can see a very quick glimpse of my first tab program then it's blank. I posted just the TabbedPrograms class because I believe the problem lies in here but I can post the rest if needed. Thank you in advance for any help.

import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTabbedPane;


public class TabbedPrograms extends JFrame
{
public TabbedPrograms()
{
    setTitle("Week Four Lab Assignment");
    setLayout(new BorderLayout()); //this is what I added to change from the default layout
    JTabbedPane jtp = new JTabbedPane();
    getContentPane().add(jtp);

    jtp.addTab("Day GUI", new DayGUI());
    jtp.addTab("Office Area Calculator", new OfficeAreaCalculator());

    getContentPane().add(jtp);
    setSize(310, 210);
    setVisible(true);
}

public static void main(String[] args) 
{
    TabbedPrograms test = new TabbedPrograms();
    test.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

}

}

The problem is that both DayGUI and OfficeAreaCalculator both add components to to their own individual JFrame windows rather than to TabbedPrograms. Those frames appear simultaneously then the main application frame is displayed.

In both those containers add the components directly onto the JPanel so that the components appear on the JTabbedPane

For example

//c.add(lengthLabel);
add(lengthLabel);

Something is wrong with your code logic, you wish to add a Day() and Calc() objects to your JTabbedPane, both of which extend JPanel, which you should use and add elements to when you add them to your tabbed pane. Instead in your Day() and Calc() objects you instantiate new JFrame() objects which I don't seem to see (getters) inside your main function.
