Find the surface area of the figure below.
A. 4300.84 mm2 B. 17203.36 mm2 C. 5476.00 mm2 D. 464.96 mm2
That object appears to be a sphere correct?
right
The formula for Surface area of a sphere is \[A = 4\pi r^2\] The relationship between diameter and radius is \[r = \frac{ 1 }{ 2 } D\] r= Radius D = Diameter Using what you know you can now solve for the surface area of the given object assuming the measurement given is the diameter.
what
@Johnbc SOS
Solve for the radius and use it in the surface area formula
i cant
Radius is half the diameter.
i know that and my diameter is 75 my radius is 37.5
Was it not 74mm?
which means the radius is just 37
Correct!
Now you have the formula for the surface area of a sphere so just plug in the value of the radius and you will find the surface area.
Surface Area of a Sphere \[Area = 4\pi r^2\]
A=4*3.14*37²
17194.64
Close, maybe a small calculator error. You're value is 17203.361
thats what i was thinking
