Sally plans to cover this model of a half moon completely with silver foil. How many square centimeters of silver foil would Sally need to cover the model completely?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the formula for a sphere is 4 pie r squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the surface area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

however, does it make a difference since it is a half circle instead of a full circle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer I got for the whole surface area was 1,017

OpenStudy (anonymous):

approximately

OpenStudy (anonymous):

however, the answer is suppose to be approximately 763.7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, surface area of a hemisphere is half that of sphere. Wait, i am finding answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the formula for a hemisphere 1/2(4 pie r squared)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It seems to be incorrect since my answer came out to be approximately 508.9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We need the Curved Surface Area of Hemisphere as the top face not needed \[CSA=2\pi r^{2}\] = 2* 22/7*(9)^2 =44/7*81 = 509.1 cm^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that was close to 508.9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but that answer doesn't come out to be right :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya i got it. We need to include top face.Hence,we need to find out the TSA of Hemisphere.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but there is only a hemisphere

OpenStudy (anonymous):

shouldn't the area of a hemisphere be half the area of a whole sphere?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

TSA=3pi r^2 = 3*22/7*(9)^2 =66*81/7 = 763.7 cm^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can I ask you something?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why don't they include these formulas in the lessons?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which book are you studying?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

online course

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It did not see the TSA formula stated in the review

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did not see the formula in the review

OpenStudy (anonymous):

only 4 pie r squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well! In case of Sphere and Hemi. you can yourselve find the formula.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but still...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they need to include every formula in the review that will be covered on the test...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the formula for the TSA of a hemisphere is 3 pie r squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):
