Default Unlocking a Workbook

I have a spreadsheet created by a past employee that contains formulas on a
protected or hidden worksheet. The previou employee didn't leave any
documentation on passwords. Is there a way to unlock the protected/hidden
worksheets even though I don't know the passwords?
